Backyard foundation finds with the Vaquero

Behind my dads house theres a foundation of a house from the 50's that burned down. Its pretty overgrown now, but I needed to get out and detect. I've tried detecting the area before with past detectors, but the area is SOO trashy that I never could find anything. Well I took my Tesoro Vaquero dwon there the other day and decided to really try to find stuff and I had success. I found a white/orange swirly marble in a hole with a 1951 5 cent netherlands coin and then I started finding wheaties, then more..and this was all in pretty much a 10 square foot area. I knew there had to be silver and even though I was digging a lottt of junk I finally found a 1957 rosie. I was lucky to find it because it was in a hole with a piece of rusted metal. I couldnt find anything else really after that, so I called it a day. I went there again today and used my 5.75 concentric coil, but the area is soo badly full of junk that it was picking up the smallest pieces of trash. I couldnt even find one coin with it.

Some of the pennies I tried to clean, but I don't know the best method of doing it. The dates I can see are two that are 1957, one is 1956, another is 1941 and a 1939 and the other ones are hard to tell, they are pretty worn. Thanks for looking!
