Well it's definitely not the kind of cache you'd expect, but I think they're cool, and they fit in with one of my collections so I'm more than happy to have had them come tumbling out of the wall at me today. Here they are.... 3 Starr x bottle openers, two 7up's which I haven't seen too many of, and a Coca Cola, which seems to be the common one... One of the 7ups still has all the original red paint on the logo! The other one has some left, but is in rougher shape, and the Coke is pretty worn. PLUS 2 church keys! (I collect church keys) One is a nice Carling's Red Cap Ale, and the other is a Stroh's. Not as exciting as a pile of silver dollars to some, but to me they are a really great find!

Those openers are nice. Not easy to just stmble across. The 7Up looks unused too. Nothing. Eats those cool dry holes in the wall!

:hello2: The 7-up opener is in super shape! :hello2: I don't recall seeing one of those, though I was born in early 1940's. The Coke one is more familiar, and one of my daughters actually gave me one as a gift once, lol. Fun finds! Andi

Pretty cool find. I was born in 1945 and remember those church keys as my dad drank beer. I have often wondered, how come I have not detected a church key yet? I have been md'ing for almost 3 years now, and no church key. I kinda wish we still used church keys, and there would not be all those pull tabs everywhere. Hope you find lots more treasures in those walls.
HH everyone

the church keys made today are junk, really disappointing to use. I still have my P38 from the sixties and use it occasionally

I love the Stroh's memorabilia! My grandmother worked for them in Indiana for 30-35 years.

You can sell those and probably buy a few Morgan dollars with the profits! :treasurechest::thumbsup:

Thanks all! Found another Starr opener in there today, but it's a different style, plain and made in Germany. It's covered in paint so when I get through boiling that off I'll add a pic here...

NHBandit, Dr. Pepper is pretty much the only soda I like, but if I find anything I'll let you know
