Tearing the front porch off and as soon as the workers were gone, I was in the dirt. I have found Merc's and IH's in the driveway but no coins, except a quarter dropped by one of the workers...lol. Did get a couple of old, broken relics that are pretty cool.
A Barclay Tank #43 missing the turret and gunner :BangHead:. Couldn't believe the double barrel from an old BB gun. Could be an old Daisey 104 or 21 model, both barrel's still have the loaders inside. Can't get them out yet, makes me wonder if there are any BB's inside.:headbang:

Love those old toys, congrats. Your double barrel was most likely a "pop" gun, with corks on strings (or no strings) in the muzzles. I say this based on the pistons/springs in the barrels. I bet you can find some old toy soldiers there, probably disquised on your VDI as Lincoln cents! Sub8-)
 

Well done Q4. I would not have recognized the BB gun barrel. Nice.
 

Congratz on some nice finds!
 

Amazing! I didn't know there was such a thing as a double barrel BB gun. I had a Daisy when I was a kid like so many boys of the time. We seldom did any good deed with them. I am not familiar with old military toys. Would the tank be from the post WW! era? I'd like to see one in like new condition. It looks pretty well detailed.
Thank you for sharing your interesting finds with us. I learned something too.

Nice digs Q!!! I agree with the cork gun ID.
