While on one of my typical, drive around on the weekend and find somewhere to detect trips :roll:

I spotted a dug up sidewalk, so I went around the block to discover new sidewalks are being laid where none were before, they are digging up the easement between the curb and wherever the property line is and pouring concrete.

I spotted a house that had to be built in the 20s or about and the dirt was partially dug up by a small backhoe. There was a man watering out front but he did not speak much english so I got out my detector and showed him and he didnt have a clue to what I wanted. He waved to me and went inside, So I went ahead detected between the curb and the wall at the property.
Found clad, washers and some copper thingys.

I also found this aluminum coin, I thought it was silver at first. :p
It says "shells coin game" I looked it up, Its one of these.

Kinda cool.
Again, stumped as to no wheaties or silver but I might hit the house next door, the only issue is there is no wall or any separation from the curb to the house.
