Actually, the late H. Glenn Carson, author of the classic book Coinshooting, which I mentioned earlier, was a Colorado digger. He made a number...
Oh, sure. Though hot rocks are not so much an issue in the soils I’ve encountered here in the SE. I suspect many of my disappearing signals were...
Bet that was a hot signal! Reminds me of a story I read somewhere (likely in H. Glenn Carson’s classic, Coinshooting) about a fella in the old TR...
Re. this, again- [ATTACH] Ooh, yeah, she’s got a messed up, mutant, backwards hand, too, doesn’t she? LOL I immediately thought that image was...

Good Lawd-a-mercy, man! I’d have been impressed enough by any D-mint Classic Head gold. But in Mint State… wow. Not something I’ll ever own,...
