got lucky at a brothel

[mmiller]

A friend called me the other day about listing a property of hers she wanted to sell. Doing some resarch before the appointment,I found out that this building was built in the 1880s. Among the things I found out, is that it was an originally a brothel. Arriving at the appointed time,she was late(as norm) but called me and said take a look around the out side and she would be there in a couple minutes.Well being I was very interested in this property I walk around and out back there was spot where someone had done some digging.So I of course went over and looked.Something in the dirt pile caught my eye. Reaching down to my surprise I found a 1908 barber dime just lying in the dirt.Just then my friend pulls up.I felt that I had to show her my find and ask her if she wanted it,she declined.After a tour of we started talking and she told me that there had been a few coins found there and that workers just keep them.So i told her of my hobby and was granted permission to hunt any time I wanted of course till it sells. Now I just hope the snow and the cold goes away in time for me to hunt

Nice! Hope you're able to get back there and clean the site out. Great title to your post, too!

Wow, what a neat story and find. Some poor guy was probably heartbroken when he showed up at the brothel and realized he had lost his $.

I was just window shopping. I will let you keep the dime I dropped, but when you find the rest please return them.

Good luck....

Ill bet those workers didnt have a MD. Great potential. Someone may have purposely buried money. 8)
