A Barb and stuff

I found these coins today in a yard I had just hunted in for a lost wedding ring. 1911D dime a no date Buff. 1903 Indian and 4 wheats. Also dug a pin with "CORNER STONE LAYING-JULY 17, 1900. I think I like the pin the best.

When they built a new building (Church Ect) they usually had a corner stone for the foundation that was dated.

It is a little of both (silver plated brass.) The house at one time was a parsonage for the Christian church. I will do some research and see when the church was built.
