Back at my trash site today pulling more nails pull tabs. Back many years ago there were houses here before it was a park that explains all of the square nails the pull tabs came during the park years digging up this stuff is a pain in the butt, but it comes with rewards. Today's finds 1942 merc 4 wheats and a 1940 Canadian cent...

Very well done PP! That Merc is extra sweet, no wear and a nice gray patina.

Best of luck to you sir!
