Well...

What a hunt!

Got out there right after work and started working on the street...no luck.

I then moved to the sidewalk area between the post office and tavern. BINGO!

Scored a 1938 quarter, 1900 barber dime (in mint condition) 1916 and 1942 mercury.

Found another 15 wheat pennies.

What was amazing was the number of coins I found just laying on the ground (including the 1916 mercury).
