    Wow! You found all of these in just one site?
    Buyer and seller of vintage coin boards!
  • Yes. They are doing some work down the street and had the fence torn down on an empty lot. I went over and spoke with the contractor (who turned out to be the new owner) and he gave me permission. There were about 20 coins (couple of buffalo's and one walker) in an area of about 10 ft from where a house used to sit.

    I am going back tonight as they are not going to be doing anything else to the property till Monday.
