My Holy Grail CA Gold Rush Buckle--Finally!

[Ron (CA)]

This has always been on the top of the list for me and I finally was able to find 1/2 of it. With the help of a buddy I was able to complete this buckle for my collection. Also scored another first buckle find for me-- the 6 pointed star buckle!! What a hunt!

Glad it made its way to a collection where it can be appreciated/known/shown. Thanx Ron! A meeting of "hard core CA relic hunter " minds

I can’t quite express how jealous I am of the apparently un-detected mining camps you have access to.
So consistent too.

Beauty. It’s got Cali-fornIA written all over it. The star is very nice also. Congrats.
