Gold Rush Era Finds. Chinese History
Hi All, I went for a new years hunt today with a few friends. We went to a old sight that has a history of the gold rush and the Chinese that came in from then on.
I ended up finding a really cool opium tin lid. I was not sure what it was at first but I was able to look it up and find others like it online. Then I dug a Chinese coin. Pretty busted up but still always fun to dig these.
By the end of the day I had only dug a Oklahoma Tax token, Toy money, silver plated long spoon and a few other coins they were just wheats with one being a 1917s. 2 other too toasty to make out.
My friends found some newer silver, A silver ring and a couple other Chinese coins. Happy New Year everyone..
