Left my jacket at the demo house where Skinny Puppy and I detected so I went back for it but it was gone.
I detected the back yard for a bit and managed to pull a silver war nickel ( 1943 S ) and a merc ( 1936 ) along with a few more wheaties.
They were all found in the middle of our battle field of holes from yesterday and all were strange signals.
On the way to the car I got a nice low tone 10-17 but solid so I dug it and it turned out to be the little orange car.
Looks to be from maybe the 40's of 50's.
I then headed home and instead of taking the express way I went through some towns via side streets and came upon another
street repair about 3 blocks long. There wasn't much to detect, only the dirt sections along the curb area.
I managed to find a 1946 rosie a few more wheaties and then a 1906 IH penny.
