I finally found some new spots to hunt... and really didn't think I'd find much because the neighbors said it was all fill dirt.... well the back yard was empty but the front was another story...

I went back and gave it a second scan and I came up with MORE SILVER!!! and wheats and my first buffalo nickle in a very long time. I was digging the "iffy" signals toward the end... I bet that yard has more in it.. I will be going back and working more slowly.
This is the best single site I have ever hunted for coins all this was in a 25x20 ft yard! They are not that old but silver is silver IMO. Also I am quite perturbed... I hit 7 of of the 25 "keeper" coins... I can only attest that to being in a nice yard I kept the hols as small as possible... thus hitting several of the coins. :-(
2 more silver
1951 Quarter 1954d Dime
1935 Buffalo Nickle
4 more wheats
1930s 1940 x2 1946d

I went back and hunted this site a third time... I'll post updated pictures tomorrow... just wanted to update the post...
I dug almost every signal... I think I need to go back one more time... on this visit this is what I got....
11 more wheat pennies 1920-1952 (for a total of 28 wheat pennies form one site!)
1961 Rosie Silver dime
1943P Silver Nickle
(Total silver for this site 10 silver coins!)
This is the best site I have ever hunted... well for semi-modern coins... I bet there still is more!
