Big Silver surprise in the Inland Empire.
Decided to head out to the Perris area in Southern CA to check out some properties that I have inspected for land development. I had been on this property a few years ago, 15 acers, and new that it had two or three demolished houses that were used for migrant farm hands to live in year ago.
I wasn't doing as well as I thought I would working around the exposed footings until I reached what use to be a raised wooden porch, I pulled back some of the old lumber and as soon as I made a couple of swings with my explorer I got the mixed tone back and fourth between 16 a 29 reading that normally means screw cap on my EX but after exposing the target I was surprised to see what appeared to be a small pill box. When I went to pick it up it was heavy and I became excited to see what was in the box.
Check it out!!
I want to thank all you guys for the responces you have posted. I guess because I spend 99% of my time on the beach I didn't realize the responce my find would generate.
Thanks again!

I would have had to hope that there was a chill pill in there, without one I would still be doing the happy dance.

I know that made your heart skip a beat. By the way I know the Perris area well, it is an old town.

This property is on the south side of the City out by the Railroad Museum, my company was considering the purchase of the property to build Tract homes on, that was before the economy took the noes dive. It was cleared and all existing structures were demolished in preparation for grading and it has just been sitting for the past two years. I think there should be more finds on the property, I plan to hit it again soon.

Re: Big Silver surprise in the Inland Empire.
What a great find especially considering that you thought it might be a screw cap. Wonder when it was put there

Re: Big Silver surprise in the Inland Empire.
Wonderful find, In fact I'll venture banner ! Because of the unusual nature of finding a
silver box obviously stashed and the contents do constitute a cache ! Very Nice , Argentium.
