Just a test to see if anyone sees this. Ramhorn.

Good! I want to share this with you and ask your opinion. Read this and tell me exactly what questions come to mind?

First thing that comes to my mind after reading the article is, who were the other three unidentified persons that were also seeking the booty?

Same guy, kind of shows his frame of mind and personality.
An article from the year before in The Times 1969 Jan. 28 page 13

Would that be George Mroczkowski?

Yes

 

[Red_desert]

Yes

Looks like I had already answered the question. Nice old pistol find.

I've been a metal detecting, gold prospecting, relic/antique hunter for a few years in So Cal. since 1978. Mostly interested in San Felipe/Carrizo wash treasure, Salton Sea, Lake Cahuilla, Lost desert ships, Pegleg, Banner, Julian and Imperial Valley which was once the bottom of Lake Cahuilla.

Exciting stuff. Be careful out there.
