Don't post anything about where the house is, not even the state. Nobody needs to know.
Giant house filled with tons of cash and antiques!!!

A cousins wife just died. he came from Columbus Ohio to visit me last month. Said he's moved out of his big old house built in 1891 and has put it up for sale. Even though it's more than 800 miles from me I asked if I could metal detect around the house.
He said that a neighbor had already done that.
he said this guy turned his detector on and walked slowly up the stairs. Getting a good signal under a wooden step he convinced my cousin to take up the board. The signal persisted. After cutting a large hole in the stair case he "discovered" a ceilng light to the room below.
When you laugh hard it hurts

Wow Arron...what treasure hunt you could be in for. Don't let any of the other realitives just start throwing stuff away. I have seen that happen. Some people that aren't into "old" stuff think you should just get rid of all the junk.

Updates!!!
Here are some of the newest finds! I feel like a pirate!! Haha
First item is a VERY small pistol, about 4? long! It says ?North American Arms? on it. Any idea of the age? Also, I KNOW it is loaded, but I do not know how do unload it. I will bring it to a gun shop.
Second is a Smith & Wesson ?32? ?CTGE?. No other details on that one!
Next up is a good one. This has Japanese writing on the butt, but I cannot decipher it.
Here is a HORRIBLE idea! It?s a PEZ dispenser? and the candy comes from the barrel! Let?s just put guns in our mouths! Haha
There are LOTS of furs; I?ll just post a few:
And this old sewing machine, like new with all the accessories! Dated 1952.
I?ll keep everyone posted!

Here are some toys:
Pic one is of some cars.
The clear one is a Schuco 1005. It is the rarest color and min perfect (NOTHING wrong) shape. It is a wind up car.
The red car is also in perfect shape, but is missing the pole you would push in the back to make it shoot across the floor!
See the little red buggy? That is a pristine (no wear anywhere) 1967 Hot Wheels Hot Heap. Even the bottom looks new! Fresh from the package? 40 years ago!
The 3 blue and one green are unknown Tootsietoys, all the same.
The white truck thing and the red truck thing are Matchbox. White is No.61, red is No.35
Pic two is of some plush? well, technically I guess, but they sure aren?t soft! I know nothing about these except what you see.

Hi,
The North American, you unscrew the knurled screw under the barrel, and take out the cylinder to remove the bullets. They made these in the late '70- early '80's.

PEZ GUN
You can also find (rarely!) dispensers in gun form, handy for dental suicide. Pez Candy has been making dispensers since the '40s. They only made 3 different dispenser-guns between the '50s and '80s.
