Make the worlds largest key ring...

Btw, I’m assuming you created the ring of skeleton keys from individual finds?

Most have been found at the beach and curb strips, but, you can find them just about anywhere. For me, it was about 50 a year on average.....that's only 4-5 a month or 1 every 2-3 hunts. It doesn't sound like so many when you break it down like that. :laughing7:

A lot of the keys got grouped onto a chain or ring. Most lately haven't been classified, just tossed into a can. The skeleton keys were all individually found. Some of the others were found together on a ring.
