Popular Post klunker Posted February 16, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2017 Mr. Hawkeye. Sir. The actual source for boot nails is Plumas County, California where they occur naturally both in volcanic lava vents and in widespread alluvial deposits as the result of massive extrusions and explosive eruptions. Some boot nail deposits were so rich that, during the gold rush, they were mined and shipped throughout Plumas County and used frivolously by the gold rush era miners. To this very day boot nails can still be found by metal detectorists while searching for gold nuggets. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LipCa Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 That looks like a normal heel to a boot.... What does the bottom side look like? Are there hob nails in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitebutler Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I'm so happy I have a board blacksmith friend he collects all type of little metal stuff. I think he should help us all out and go detecting. That way we all will be happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDancer Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 A likely source for all those Unicorn shoes I find :) But I'll just have to say you found the heel of the joke. *grins* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
