1 1/2 Hour Street Work Hunt

[milco]

On Thursday I spotted a street/sidewalk project and it was nearly completed....ugh! I thought I totally missed it. There were some small patches of dirt to hit yet so I thought I would stop by. I did yesterday and much to my surprise they scraped the sod off a whole bunch of curb strips in preparation for re-sodding, which I am sure will happen this week, so this weekend will be the end. I hit most of the area, but might go back today if I can squeeze in another hunt there. I found $1.63 in clad, a 1903 IH and eight wheat cents, 1913, 1940(2), 1941, 1945D, 1953D, 1956D(2). Unfortunately, no silver.
