Default Went Back For Another Relic Hunt where I Found The Gold Watch A While Back.....

>

My buddy & I went back to the woods to the place I got that gold pocket watch a few weeks back. It was a hot one today, at 34C/93F (at least for this cowboy) so we only lasted a little more then a couple of hours. I did get some loot, but no silver.



Digging up some metal signals got us some glass bottles. Although not very old, the bottle I took home is just full of flaws, making it somewhat valuable and a great conversation piece. The bottom was dated 1955.....JL & CLC. I'll try some research to see if there is some info on it later on when I have some more time.



This find gave me a bit of a nitro......I had visions of paper money, gold coins, silver but it was just an old cigarette case.

I was lucky though to find 8 more COKE plastic caps, good for another 4,000 points towards something free. Someone last year on one of the forums got enough points for a free camera.

Thumbs up

I can only imagine how fast your heart was pumping when you found the cigarette case. I think that's a dream we all share.
