strick Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I've been hitting a couple old relic spots lately. One of the better finds I wanted to share with you all. I had never heard of the "California Midwinter International Exposition" till I found this Medallion a couple weeks ago. Turns out it was the Worlds fair in 1894. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Midwinter_International_Exposition_of_1894 The area I was hunting was an old town on the delta......the traces of which have been erased by mother nature and man long ago. The tokens and watch fob were found in a couple other spots that time has been more kindly too. Finally since this a prospectors website....I wanted to show off the beautiful Gold Pendant that I had Steve "aka El Dorado" make for Lisa. It was from a nugget I found up in the high country this past Summer. Thanks for looking. strick 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klunker Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I heard rumor that Strick was seen consulting with a renown seafaring gentleman. Is he contemplation a detecting trip to a foreign land? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strick Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 I heard rumor that Strick was seen consulting with a renown seafaring gentleman. Is he contemplation a detecting trip to a foreign land? Yes the rumor is true. If there's one thing I learned from 10 years of college it's to always place yourself in the middle of people who are smarter then you. Something might rub off. The seafaring gentleman gave me a lesson on how to tame my XP Deus...and he found better stuff then I did....So I was right lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klunker Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 You made the gentleman quite happy but his hats no longer fit. I'll be bringing him back into reality very soon. Then my hats won't fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
