My neighborhood was built in the 50s and my house was built in 1952. I found my first ever Merc there on my birthday last year. I've also found 4 small sterling heart charms with various designs on them, an old sterling seamstress scissor handle, a ton of wheats and a few shotgun headstamps.
My neighbors' yards have been super nice to me...7.5g 14k wedding band (returned to its owner), 1.5g 14k ring, large sterling mens bracelet, large sterling Army Air Force ring, sterling class ring, sterling ladies ring missing the stone, 20+ silver coins (Mercs, Rosies, GW's, an SLQ, war nickels) and well over 100 wheats.
