Bucket list and then a surprise

Probably sounds silly but a lot of people have found model T keys but I never did, until now. It was the only thing I found in this yard but I’ll take it!
A yard or two later I managed a few Indian head pennies and then came a surprise, an 1851 2 Skilling! it’s a Swedish coin and I guess it makes sense since my great grandfather C.P. Melgren immigrated to the town from Sweden, founding one of the local churches which is still there. Maybe he dropped it!

Awesome finds Noah! I like that Skilling coin. I see you found model T key # 64. They only number 51 through 74. All those millions of Models T cars and only 23 different keys! Here's mine! (I found 3 and 2 were given to me)

Congrats! Hey it is possible that your great grandfather dropped which makes that a pretty cool find!

I have found one of the keys before but I threw it out not knowing what it was. I throw out most of the stuff I find but if I would have known what it was then I would have kept it.

WTG on the Skilling!

Nice early coin!

Congrats on all the nice finds. Your having a good year. Don't think I ever found a ford key but I have to admit I would not know what I was looking at. I'll have to start paying closer attention. Congrats WD

Way to go Noah! I've found several model T wheel hub caps, and even a couple sets of ignition points, but never a key. Great find on the coin, with a nice historical link too!

Thanks everyone. Kinda feel like my year is starting out rather slow, however still making a few nice firsts. Love to find colonial but I'm in the wrong neck of the woods for that!
