Couple hours and a gallon of persperation later

[DIGGITALL]

I went to my sons house today in Nashville Tn.it is a old house built in early 1920's so we just looked around in the front yard for couple of hours and dug up a lot of old tin down 6 to 7 inches at first i thought it might be a shell from a cannon because if its close proximty to the nashville battlefield but it was just a old can after half hour digging in the hard dry dirt and gravel. I did happen to find this cross about 3 inches down. then found the wheat penny 1944D and 1971 quater . closer to the front door about 2 inches down the cross came out. Searching a little more before dinner I found this dog rabies tag from 1947 from a local vet right there in the same neighbourhood.OH yes they must of put on a new roof or two since the home was built because we found a load of roofing nails. I have to go back there is more yard on side and a big back yard .Here is a picture of finds today. Thanks for looking

Those old roofing nails can be a pain in the arse! Looks like you have done well getting through some of the junk though.
Congrats and keep up the good work.
