    April 18th at an old building site

    My brother gave me a call last night and said he had permission from a friend who's a realtor to hunt an old building which has a plaque on the front that say's built in 1906 so we went for it this morning. I managed to find a few keepers there. The barber is in rough shape from corrosion but I managed to get the real bad stains off it with baking soda but as you can see the soil (probably a lot of fertilizer) did a job on the old barber.
    But I'll take an old silver coin like this gladly any day, they're getting further and few between it seems.
