Here's part one of a hunt we did when we were trying to locate an old ghost town that burned down about 130 years ago. We ended up finding a cool old bank box and quite a few relics from camps on the outskirts of what used to be the town. Thanks for watching!

Doc,
I must say, that there is a very well done professional video. I really enjoyed it. You could have your own TV show. :thumbsup:

Thats a really neat find! Too bad the box didnt have a Bunch of silver in it
 

Awesome find! Very interesting! Thanks for the great video.
 

Nice finds and video. In the finds you show at the end I seen the brass teardrop shaped thing and I have one just like it. I thought I would post a picture of it in case you don't know what it went to.

My first impression is that of a spinning fishing lure.
 

very cool savings bank. it dates from the 1920's
 

The bank is incredible, the lure looks like a very early(1970's) spinner bait...
 

The spinner bait lure is a little older it dates between 1890 to 1920.

Very cool. Kinda weird though. There isn't a fish around this place bug enough to take that lure… nor has there ever been.
