    Re: Old gas station finds

    My WAG is your '33 coin is one centavo bronze coin of Philippines issue (under US sovereighnty) minted in Manila. The 'back' (actually, the coin's obverse) may appear 'blank', but in reality may simply be worn flat.

    And don't forget to run your detector over the 'tailings' pile that the dozer makes.
