Ghost town goodies

["Dr.Tones"]

Hey guys I just wanted to share some ghost town finds with you all. This particular town was only in existence from 1866 to 1869. on day one I located a newer section of town and found the makeup compact, the garter belt clasp, the oil lamp, the buckle and a few three-ring bullets. The second day I spent hiking and I was rewarded by finding the actual townsite that burned down long ago. Some of the cooler things I found included some henry repeater rifle cartridges (H,U & P), some FVV & co cartridges that were only in production from 1865 to 1868, some cool buttons, a religious medallion and my first intact bottle. It appears to be a medicine type bottle made between 1840 and 1870. The only coin that was found was found by my friend Ryan and it was a Chinese coin. Had a great time and I hope to do it again soon. Happy hunting to everyone. I'll be diligently at work on the next video.

Nice finds there Doc. Relic hunting doesn't produce much, if any, silver but the finds are super interesting and the trips are usually lots of fun.

Very interesting finds. Looks like you had great fun. Hope you keep it all together. There may not be many articles from that town left for posterity.
