Went back to the same house I found the 1842 Half Dime only this time, I was lucky enough to dig my first skeleton key and a sweet 1886 Indian Head cent!!
Pretty stoked on finding the key!!

Nice. I have found about 6 skeleton key handles but never a complete one. And the Indian head is in really good condition! Virginia soil is not so forgiving.
 

Nice work. 🙌 Nifty Indianhead.

Both finds are sweet, but I'm more jealous of the Indian head! I've wanted to find one for years, but apparently they're hard to come by in California. Yours is pretty darn minty for 1886.
 

Wow! Excellent finds and condition!
 

Nice finds! :icon_thumright: That skeleton key is pretty neat!
 

Both are excellent finds and in nice condition. Congrats
 

Congrats. Nice finds.
 

Great finds. Its always nice to find a skeleton key, and that Indian is in great shape. You have some nice dirt over in Indiana.
 

Beautiful Indian you got there, and that skeleton key is sweet too.

Best of luck sir!
