I went out yesterday to a lot abought an acr,in size.homes were torn down in the 70's under urban renewal.the dozers have scraped away the brush and small trees for the addition to a industral park.anyway thought i would try my luck before it was to late.Within moments of walking on the site I found coins laying on the ground. clads 25,10,5,1cents.
Over half of what i picked and dug up was within a ten sq,ft.area.dozers had moved it all over the lot.spent 4 1/2 hours and picked up $37.16. I'm at a loss as to how this got on the property becouse no homes or buildings or use of lot in over twenty years.No other homes around for some kid to have hid his cache.My only thinking is that on one side of the lot is a car wash and a lee's chicken and gas station that might have been robed at one time.All of the coins had dates from 1965-1993 so i feel that it was dumped or lossed sometime in or after 1993.
What I found.
25 CENT = 114 EA.
10 CENT = 37EA
5 CENT = 10EA
1 CENT = 2246EA.
