Some of you may have already seen this story. It dates from back in September '91 and was written up in at least one of the treasure mags.

These are finds a fellow named Tom, goes by MT on the Kinzli California Forum. He made these finds in San Francisco back in 1991. I think Rudy and maybe some others know of or know Tom. It is a great read!

To get his story go to post #58 dated Mar. 27, 2008 in the above link. The whole thread is kinda interesting. Reading some of the replies in the thread reminds me why our Friendly Forum here is my Home Base for metal detecting tales and information!! :yes:

Awesome story...one should not have a weak heart when experiencing such a find.... and I think I would have spent an additional few hours on the first hunt.... of course, I do not know the circumstances and it was a dicey neighborhood. RickO

I know MT. You can take his story to the bank.

moseng · Feb 11, 2009

Yes, THAT is why I (we) do this!! I mean even just the "thought" of finding something like this gives me a rush!! Hey, wait a minute... I know someone who knows someone who might know someone at the dump where they brought all the dirt!
