I headed out Sunday to check progress on a local sidewalk replacement project. (it hadn't moved any farther). On the way I noticed a late 19th C
house being refurbished. There was someone working in the house and I got the "go ahead". NICE !
The area to the left of the house is a downslope ending with an old arbor. The backyard had been filled and it was gravelly under an inch of dirt.
I swept the front and left yards and managed to find 3 IHs (1888, 1893, 1901) and a sterling ring. Also 15 wheats but NO silver coinage!! lol. I expected at least a few silvers. Oh well. Also found a 1914 dog license.
