Awesome relics, watch, and silver from a 1903 house

Coinboy007

Well-known member
I went to this 1903 house in town to see if I could find anything yesterday. I was onlt there for 2 hours but I popped a lot of good stuff! First came the coins in the front yard, a 1939 Canadian silver Dime and 3 wheats. Then I moved to the back yard and immediately pulled this patented December 1 1925 pocket watch! That one made me really happy! Then I walked a few more steps, got a screaming quarter signal and popped out this beautiful skeleton key! Probably from when the house was made. Then I got one of my favorite finds, this 1930s lead Cowboy manufactured by Barclays!
If you want to watch the video it will be up at 11am central time tomorrow:
Hope you liked it!

He lives in the greatest land for detecting. There is just staggering number of untouched early historical sites up that way. He will learn in time how much awaits his persistent research. I hope he gets into some of the research I was before I left. Not to mention every farm house is potentially awesome and 85% chance of never being dug!!! I’m sad, you don’t know what ya got, til your gone.
Im ready to this video, dude!

Thanks. When I get off school I’m gonna head to the historical society to see if they can point me to some of the early sites around here and I’ll get permission (Being a kid really helps, I’ve never been denied a permission!). And When I can finally afford a smaller coil or a different detector, I’ll go to some of the old homesteads in the woods around here! Also yes a lot of the land is undetected here, my friend found an 1821 Mexican revolution 8 reales coin 6 inches deep in his own yard with a Bounty Hunter Tracker 4! 🤪
 
Dig deep and get the vastly illusive late 1600’s research. It’s very hard to do. I know a man personally who discovered a 1680’s French trading post on the Des Moines River using an early White’s metal detector. I’ve sat at his kitchen table and held true French pistol and trade axe amongst other small trade trinkets. It forever locked in my love for this hobby. How many sites like that exist? Maybe a dozen or less would be my guess. He was also there 6 months ago looking over my shoulder when I pulled an 1852 3 cent silver out of my own property on the Mississippi River in Iowa.

Dang that’s AWESOME! I live by the Iowa River so that’s where my focus will be.
