1800's Barnwell S.C. Mansion Finds

Hi Gang, Art & I Took a Little Road Trip Today Up To MOONSHADOW'S Neck Of The Woods. We Had Secured Permission To Hunt An Old 1800's Mansion in DownTown Barnwell. We Had A Great Time Until The Rain Came, And Sent Us Back Home To Charleston. Moon, Next Time Maybe You Could Join Us. Some of Our Finds, 1 Old Brass Candle Holder, Some 3 Ring Minis, Mr. Sherman Visited The Area, Uninvited I May Add, 1 32cal Pistol Bullet, Melted Minis With Burned Wood Still In bedded, Thanks Again Gen. Phil. 1 Bracelet Gold Plate, 1 Old Brass Door Knob, Probaly From a House Sherman Burned Down To Melt The Minis With The Burned Wood in bedded. A Fragment Of a China Plate Back Marked " THE DAIRY" RRG, Some Brass Parts Of What I Think Are Some Kind Of Belt Keeper. We Also Found Clad, But The Real Keepers Are, 1906 Barber Half, 1889 Barber Quarter, 1911 Barber dime, 2- 1912 V Nickles And 1- 1900 Indian. Thanks For Looking ART & JOHN... 8) 8)

Capt, it's great you're getting out with friends from Tnet. It looks like it was a successful hunt.

Those nickels are the nicest dug v-nickels I've ever seen on here. Nice.
