I found an old claim document from 1933 in a Royal Baking Powder can. It is in very good condition with all written details (in pencil lol) clearly legible. I found it on an old claim in the Dale mining district near Twenty Nine Palms Ca. The parchment is folded inside of a rusty old can. It has one hole in the center so not mint condition, but other than that is in remarkably good condition. Anybody know if it i s worth anything? Sure is pretty cool. Price of the claim was $1 lol. Says it right there.

I would research the claim itself see if it is worthwhile to pursue today.
The claim is probably lapsed. If it wasn't then it would be illegal to remove current claim documents.

The paper is essentially worthless to a few dollars on ebay.
