GIVE-A-WAY WINNER: GARY HULS! 👈🤠👏💯 "A coin Matrix with a 1869 seated half dollar no motto coin. Minted in 1869, that year Ulysses S Grant was our 18th president, Baker Boyer Bank was built, transcontinental Rail Road gold spike was drove in to complete the east to west rail system. Washington was still a territory. This coin traveled by rail, Stage coach, from bank to business to customer for 27 years before resting in the Baker Boyer Bank in Walla Walla. 1889 Washington becomes a state. 1896, my story starts with Onscar Taylor, the oldest brother living in Walla Walla getting a telegram from younger brother Amos to visit him in a small town called Elma for a fall festival that will have a German brew master ( Leopold Schmidt , Olympia Beer Company )hosting his new pale ale. Onscar , a trapper fur trader/leather craftsman, who works for Hudson Bay Company accepts. Amos who works around Gray Harbor, Montesano, Elma area is a tree faller/grease monkey working on skid row lumber jack is excited to have his brother visit. Onscar went to Baker Boyer Bank and with drew 6 half dollars, one being a capped bust, one being a seated, 2 being seated no motto, and last one being a barber to travel to Elma with. He spent two half’s getting to his brother whom was camped in a cow pasture with other tent stalkers, wagon goers, festival lovers and a few of the 1896 Klondike gold prospectors. The brothers went to the fall festival, Onscar spent another 2 half’s on there entertainment for that day. The pavilion had the pale ale , two mugs worth for five cents, a v nickel, or a trine and two IHP. They enjoyed there time together, getting very drunk. Walking back to camp, they were boasting who was stronger, and tougher, and that led into a WWWF wrestling match like no other, creating quite the disturbance that a home owner opened his front door and yelled at them to stop and go home. Little did Onscar know that one of the last two half’s fell out of his watch pocket of his pants. They stopped, brushed off , laughed about them self’s and followed the sidewalk to camp. Next day he realized he was missing a half dollar, so they went back to apologize to the homeowner, and look for his money to no avail, because it was fall time and tons of leaves had fallen already onto the ground. For 126 years this coin has been entombed in the earth lying dormant until you and your metal detector pass over it with high tones. You cut your plug and unearth this piece of untold history, wanting us to give you the 911 skinny on it. Now you know. Take this coin and flip it heads it’s a true story tails. The story is lost for another tale to be told. The coin whisperer." - Gary Huls

Well, now little Rosie surprised me. she was out in the rain for a bit. Did you apply a coating of silicone to her Andrew? Can't have her dissolving 'can we? You found some nice silver by the way. I don't do cold. Good to see you out and about again I always enjoy your videos.

Yes, she was siliconed well. I on the other hand prefer hog lard. It’s messy, but it holds up here. Stay tuned for more Relic Ranger mud… It’s getting fun here. Thanks for watching!
