Here in Arizona, the season is pretty much drawing to a close however I
plan a few early morning nugget hunts in the next few months.

Recent finds?

Leather wallet with 6, $50 silver certificates and a mint 1903 silver
dollar. Also contained two tin photographs and an illegible telegram.
Found 3" deep outside an old mine camp site.

.38 revolver, found under 6" of mud in a canal which was drained for
cleaning and repair. Rotted, rusted, gave to police since it was fairly
new and who knows what it might have been used for.
