Yesterday, I went back to the tearout where I found the 1853 seated dime and the Barber quarter on July 29th. I had missed some areas that are now buried again, but managed to find a great variety of items. Here are the coins and other smaller items. Not pictured is the iron, trash and lots of lead, copper and brass for the scrap metal bins. I also found a horseshoe. HH!!

Another spectacular hunt, Darren! Gotta love that 1854 Seated Half Dime! The bar token is awesome too.

That brown marble looks like a Bennington. They used to be very collectible.

Congrats on the sweet digs! :clapping:

Great hunt, Darren! You ever take guff from home owners adjacent to the tear outs? Congrats on the rare half dime!

Thanks! This happens, but very rarely. If it does, I just move on down the street. Usually it leads to a conversation and me MDing their yard.
