It was. I was talking to an AZ Marshall and he said that the OK area had been pounded flat. He said that he expected that I wouldn't find jack, and he was right. He said that the other areas of Tombstone had a much better chance.
I was there on vacation in the 90s...I was talking to the guy that had the Mexican restaurant just south of downtown and the motel...he said a guy had recently found a morgan dollar on the motel property. If I remember correctly, he also said that he had plowed up a sword or bayonet (can't recall which) on his property outside of town. Everyone was really nice there. One lady let us go into one of the museums for free a second time since we had paid the day before.
