    1907 house produces a few oldies

    I recently got permission to hunt an old house in my area. The owners son has been doing some concrete work at the house and told me when he was breaking up an old side walk he found a 52 Washington under the walk. I thought that was a nice non detector find. I spent about 5 hours total over 2 days at the site and found a dozen wheats and your usual clad. I only managed one silver( 42 Merc) and it had a buffalo and a wheat in the hole with it. I also found a St Christopher medal, which I do not think is silver.
