Sidewalk project update part 2...and a curse.

[bk]

I went back to my sidewalk project for the last time to see if I could pull one or two more coins out before all the cement got poured. Only the corners had not been poured yet so I detected slowly in those areas and managed to find one more seated Liberty dime. After finding the dime I dug up a brass bust of Tutankhamen. No more coins were found, and soon it started to rain. The curse of Tutankhamen?
Good thing I found the dime first.
Here is what the site looks like now.

Great coin and whatzit but whose that guy in the photos? Boy, I'd be careful in that neighborhood!

This really makes you wonder how much is buried under that street.

Blackjack,
Boy I sure had you fooled didn't I?
It was a very nasty day here too. Never even made it to 60 degrees, and it drizzled most of the day.
I'm afraid our days are numbered now.

GOOD JOB on the finds. Those cannonballs look too big for that cannon, is that the case?

They do, don't they?
I'll have to go back and measure them.
I didn't have room in the car for them, plus I think the county would not like it if I removed them from the courthouse lawn.
