I don't usually do much land hunting in the summer, but i saw this street in one of the older neighborhoods with the grass scraped off, couldn't helpmyself!!! LOL
Got my first flying eagle cent 1858, 2 silver washington quarters 1946 and 1951d, 3- mercs 1945, 1942, 1917s, about 45 wheats lots of dates in the teens and 20s'. and a 1913 type II buffalo.

Artifacts- a sterling barrel shaped match safe? St Louis railway token, and a 1919 Chicago vehicle tax tag 35 hp or less.


Thanks for looking.
