Okay, he really didn't, but let's use our imagination. I found my second "Cracker Jack Mystery Club" coin with a president; this one was James Buchanan. In the picture below, he is looking at the latest recommendations from the FDA: each TH'er should find 3 Mercs, 2 war nickels and 1 Rosey each day; and so I did. Unfortunately, this leaves out many other nutritious offerings, like SLQs, Barbers, Seateds and Walkers, not to mention Indians, Buffaloes...you get the idea. I found these at the farm I've been searching, along with 09 and 10 wheats and many others. I also found 15 memorials in one hole, with the latest being a 77. That pile may have been buried 30 years ago. My daughter has been helping me by pulling the wheats and finding the dates; the 09 confused her a little bit. Doesn't appear to have a VDB, and certainly no S :'( Other than the 15 in one hole, very little clad, and few signals that weren't coins. That, of course, will change.

Good question! There is so much overgrowth around the farm house that it may be difficult to find. If I see the owners around, I'll ask; they grew up in the house. And it would be way easier to MD by myself; sometimes I don't have that option.
