What are the odds? I found this old brass key in the front yard of the old house that I've been detecting. The house was built in the 1830's. The owner of the house was there and he said lets see if it fits the lock that in the display cabinet? Sure enough it fits and works the lock perfectly. After I took some pictures I gave the brass key to the owner of the house so he would have a match set. I was using the 8 inch doughnut coil, running with minimum discrimination. The key wasn't about 4 inches deep.
I was thinking just last week how nice it would to be to find a old skeleton key. I need to get to thinking about finding some ole silver.
