Old pianos are rad.

Well haven't been out in a while. My second job consists of house cleanouts due to foreclosure, auction, and so on. I was disassembling an old piano, while removing the keys i found some black discs. Yep, no pics. but they were 2 mercs, and two rosies. Got my fix for the day. In the barn we removed a pretty neat blackpowder pistol, it was a good day.

Very nice. You never know what you will find till you look. Years ago I used to help set up auctions and had many similar discovery's. A 1700 muzzle loader in the rafters and a gallon jar of old marbles disguised as a doll with a long dress covering the jar are just a few of the finds. Keep looking and you will find things.

Nice!
You're probably in for a lot more cool finds with a job like you have. I've been trying to get my son interested in doing those cleanouts but no luck so far.
Good Luck!
Mike

Old pianos are adept at hiding old coins. Also old furniture. Check all around and under the keys!

I love finding stuff like that! Take a look under the stairs for coins
