Coins
found at the corral at Blacksmith canyon south of HGS#1
1878 silver dollar, 1907 Nickel, 1903 Indian Head Penny,and 1903 Nickel.
These coins were found by me while metal detecting around Blacksmith Canyon in the old coral area. I tried to file a claim on this 1/4 section but found out it was owned by the State of Arizona because of the well at that location. At one time there was a ranch house there with a corral and a hand dig well. Before I found out that we could not file on that 1/4 section, I spent many hours cleaning out the old well so we could use it. The well stays full all summer and would have been a good source of water for club use. I wish the Club could buy this 1/4 section from the state. I also found some gold nuggets around this area, but when I found out that it was State property, I sent the nuggets to the State treasury . (NOT)
