I've resently moved to a older house that dates back to the late 1800s and I have been having a blast. I haven't found anything real old yet but I am still looking. I found this stuff in my front yard and about 30 wheaties roughly. ![]()  |

If that's not old I'm not sure what is. Nice loot!  Keep poking around and you will find what your looking for! Good Luck! |

WTG on the silver. I would be happy just to find that old train. Its pretty cool. Not everything has to be from the 1800s but you get spoiled by finding it. Jeff R.

Boxtopp, those are great! Can't imagine what the backyard will hold. that train is neato.
I think you should do a closeup of the belt buckle and medal. Nice. AG

My friend will be moving into an old house soon too. We are looking forward to seeing what's in his yard.
That train is cool!

Very cool toys. That train looks like it may be a 30s or 40s tootsietoy and the truck looks 40s, maybe my Manoil , Hubley or Barkley who all made thos cast pot metal cars and trucks back then. All those great toys are probably masking the older stuff. heh, heh...
Nothing like a yard where kids played way back when for some great finds!
Looking forward to the next installment.
