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!
