White’s Electronics,

My intention for this story and pictures was to pose some relics on a rock or something, but due to time constraints, I just took some photos of my relic case. These are my best finds since I bought my detector in March 2007, but I have bags full of other things.

Everything in the case with the exception of one dime dates to the Gold Rush era and before. Basically in the case is a lock plate and hammer to an early musket. A complete two piece eagle buckle, several sportsmen’s' buttons with animals on them. Three 1840's Mass. Militia buttons, several Chinese coins that date from the mid 1600's to the late 1700's. A Spanish and Prussian coin, an 1850 dime and a rare 1856 dated San Francisco mint half dollar. The rare California miners' tongue and three gold scale weights.

Thank you.

Daniel
