Lot's of old ruins & homesteads

 Do a spot check and see which old house has more interesting old artifacts.  If there was a spring get an old map and search that first.  Water was very precious in the old days so everybody would stop and refresh the stock and themselves.  Go out the back door and look for an area you would put an outhouse.  Use a two box metal detector if you have to find it, sometimes you can.  Don't forget to detect the walls of these old adobes.  Clean the area up of all the surface junk first thing.  Then wear an apron or canvas bag to collect all the junk you dig.  A year from now you don't want to have to go back and dig this same junk again.  If you can't dispose of the junk properly then just fill a depression up.  I go out of my way to get rid of broken glass, barbed wire and other stuff that can hurt animals and people.  This way the gods may smile down upon you and reward you with a nice Carson City mint silver dollar.
