  Calvert was thrown up in 1860's after the civil war, and when the RR came through, no telling about this store. There was (is)3 layers of floor boards from plywood, to tounge and groove, to just milled boards. I dont know if the last was the original or not. but they looked like real 1x's and real 2 x's, all rotten now.

Wow, Albert, you have got an awesome place there.  I know it must be a lot of work crawling around on your knees, but from the looks of your finds, I'd do it without even thinking.

Good gosh, TC!  What a site to hunt!  Those are some fantastic coin finds, but those tokens are the BEST!!!!  Thanks so much for taking the time to post the video! LOVE IT! 

          Can't wait to see what else ya'll find in there! 

                              Congrats!!! Nana 

TC this is one of the coolest postings that I have seen in a while.

I can't wait to see more of those finds as they are coming out of the ground. 

I'll be hoping for a gold coin or two for you guys.

Good luck.

HH

Very Sweet.

Again, that spot is awesome!  We only found one seated coin at the 'berg.

The next video you make needs to show the trash you are pulling out and ripping up of the floorboards. 

Keep it coming. 

Bob

This just in- the seated Quarter was a 1876 CC  my seated dime was a 1877 CC.
  I mentioned B-4 but wanted ya'll to notice the floor boards part of the video, the final layer was all just mill boards that had gaps in between when the weather would get dry, the next layer was toung and grove (so nothing getting though that), the top layer was thin plywood probaly put on in the 60's or so, just to strenghthen what was left.
  Those 2x10 floor joist were real 2x's (Old) and I believe the original boards.
   I am certain there are still stores like this in ya'lls home towns.  

Your hard work is sure paying off Tex.
        That place is a gold mine  [hope you find a gold piece there]
          Great job and awesome finds

Great digs, and cool video!! Would love to come across a place to hunt like that!!!
HH

Way to go guys!!!!  Congrats on your BANNER finds. Awesome job. Love the video, it adds so much more.
-MM-

way to you hit the jack pot

Grand slam, good as gold, and you have only scratched the surface. You have a lot of work to do there, but it's already paid off. Hurry back we want more!

     What an adventure!  I'd love to find a place like that!

Awesome!

Please don't forget to check the rotting wood floorboards for little hidden mini-caches, just in case. Of course, there may not be in mini-caches like that or maybe since the boards are rotted, then the coins have fallen through, but you never know!

Good luck and hope you find gold!
Cavers5

WOW...............

4 DIFFERENT "ERA" QUARTERS, YOU "ROCK"

 Sweet, thanks for sharing.

Congrats on a truly amazing hunt!

I think any Grand Slam deserves a wave!

Alot of good ole fashioned hard work you and Larry did there, congrats on the finds, you two deserve everything you can come out of the place with!   

What I'd give just to be diggin there with you guys....

Tex....Congrats on making the banner.  This is a banner thread for sure. 

You're working hard for those coins.  It's obvious from the video. 

I hope you take more videos for us to see.  You must be having a blast!! 

Find a gold coin this weekend! 

Lots of work but worth it   

Say Albert, is that one of the stores we talked about when Burdie and I came down? It looks familiar. I recall speculating about what might be found under those floors and I guess we were right?  Tell Larry I'd rassle him for that hat!  You guys did good. In fact, EXCELLENT!! Hope you do as well over at Galveston Island.  Take care and keep at it.  Monty

that is so awesome for you, I bet you are having a blast!

That really is great man!  Love the video!  Is this place being torn down I'm guessing? 

TC~
That is soooo awesome brother!  Keep  posting and we can all live vicariously through you!  I think I might move to Texas sometime soon!                                                                          

Very cool T.C.! Good video! Look forward to the next batch!

Thanks all, I feel honored to make the banner. They are spose to be renovating it, But you pretty much gotta tear it down to do so. I been working on the other side so maybe another video soon.

  Monty. I belive we did talk about this store when we drove by it. I had looked under it B-4 and have just been waiting. I hope to have a few more open up to me, Its kinda getting some of the locals intrested.

You wouldent believe how Larries coins cleaned up. He used Lemon juice concentrate. and they look shiney as mint, but of course worn. Some of his nickles came out beautiful, with little wear, and shinny.
   His 1876 CC is great looking, as shinny as silver gets, I know some folks wouldent clean them. But our opinion is it added greatly to there looks. 

Great finds ..It must have been a blast finding that bunch of coins +  WTG Keep Huntin"

That was a great presentation... 

MORE!!

MORE!!

Very cool congrats on  "Banner"! 

Killer finds!  Can't wati to see what you find there next.
HH

Thanks for sharing, what a tremendous hunt.  I remember a friend of mine helped a bar owner move 4 old pool tables that had been in a bar since the early 1900's.  when they moved them, the entire area underneath the pool tables was filled with coins, about half were silver including, barbers, standing liberty quarters, buffalo nickels, etc.  The best thing about it was many were in good enough condition to have lots of numismatic value.  Your find reminds of theirs . . . . . one of these days 

TC I can feel your excitement up here. Couldn't happen to a better guy. Congrats on the banner and all the great finds. My favorite is the trade tokens WTG. Hope you find twice as much in the future.

Burdie

Good Job!  Ole Larry Cissna from the Treasure Depot huh?  Yeah, I guess he is pretty good with that ole Tesoro

Tex,

Rebel Man

Nice cache

That was shield nickle Larry found. So, he actually got a double grand slam as he walked out  with 4 diffrent error nickles also. Thats the only shield found in this store yet.
  The oldest coin is a 1853 Dime found by me that same day

Freaking awesome!  Video was great.  Like striking the mother lode!

I tell you what folks i will go to my great grandpa Bea's house that was build in the 1820s.
The kitchen floor is torn out, my uncle found a 1952 wheat cent.

As of late, a few of the more stubborn coins have been cleaned and the oldest is a 1842 seated dime.
