found 45 coins, 3 beings wheaties, at an old aurora house today. One of the wheaties was a 31' so theres gotta be silver there...

One of the guys from the Fort Collins club pulled a 1912 (I think) $2.5 Dollar Gold coin last month, and a few mercs and wheats from the same yard.

Oldest I have heard of and seen a couple years ago some Clark and Gruber coins were found in a house foundation, 160 of them, all 1860 $10 gold pieces.

If you want to see some cool caches that were found in the last couple years check out gold and detectors in golden, he has two Caches on display, one a box full of old dimes, mostly mercs, Value about $8000. the other a stash of Silver that was found, about $15,000 worth.

There is treasure to be found in Denver. Its Everywhere, But there are many people with metal detectors who have been looking for decades. its just about looking in the right spots.

Where was the gold coin found?

 

[jewelerdave]

He wouldn't say much, just an old house in Denver that belonged to some friends of his.

a few years back some gold coins were pulled from around CSU up here, it was in a construction area and were found under the sidewalk. I always hit construction dirt piles in older areas of town...problem is, so does everyone else!

By any chance was it Rick Mattingly that found the gold coin?

 

[jewelerdave]

I know Rick and he has pulled up a lot in the past, that guy finds more gold...I think he found some at CSU a few years back. This last one was someone else. It will be in the next news letter. I just dont remember, as soon as the new news letter is out it will be published.
