I recieved a very nice permission and just had to start it off for an hour this morning. I wasn't 100% sure what the owner told me about the date of the house. I think he said an original part of the house dated to the early 1800's, and the rest was built in 1905. I was a bit confused. Anyway, I found the big skeleton key on a line from the front door. I added another skeleton key I found to show the size difference. The smaller one is the size I have found on all my other old keys. This one is big and has a great green patina. I like it. Anyone know how to date these old keys?
I hit the 1903 Barber a little while later. You can see every letter in LIBERTY, so I consider it a good one.
I put the weird shaped token in the picture from a hunt a few days ago. I was wondering if anyone has a token book to look it up. It says "$5 Cents in trade Conroy Brothers". the other side just has a big 5 on it.
I have a few other cool things from this short hunt that I will post later.
