Default Some of my stuff

Here's some of the stuff I've found over the years, and a few pages from an article I got published in Treasure Found way back in1990

(I was much younger and thinner then )

Nice finds there. I also enjoyed reading the articles that were with you pics. Careful running around Austin... You may stumble upon another Innerspace Caverns. That itself could be rewarding.

Heard tale of a few "money" caves over that way.

Thanks!

I was lucky, the first 3 or 4 years I hunted I was young, in shape, no responsibilites, and I had a whole lot of unexplored territory... now, I'm old, fat, responsibiliies, and I have yet to find a silver coin in the capital city of Texas - one of the oldest cities in Texas!

Oh well - at least I'm getting some exercise, getting out of the house, watching the pretty girls jog down beside the lake, and I have a few more quarters in my pocket!

One of these days I'll find another honey-hole... I'm after Seated stuff now... Barber-schmarber! j/k - I love to see that pretty silver thing come up...
