Relic Hunting
I have been hunting an old gold rush site for two years, and today it gave up something incredible. It's a miners belt buckle! It's a little bent , but I imagine it may have saved a miner in a gunfight? The other things are relics I have found over the past two years, with some Chinese coins and another tongue buckle that I have been told is possibly the only one ever found or dug. Hope you like my finds! These were all found with safari, a Deus, and a tejon.
