They have made more killer finds than most of us put together. Their photo albums are mind-blowing. They kinda stay under the radar though, so ma...

Re: Green after acid bath

Agree on the deposition of the oxalate onto the can. There is also another well-documented phenomenon that occurs. If you clean your cans in direct sunlight, whether in an open-top container or even in a clear-sided container, the green film will form aggressively, even with fresh acid solution. I d...

They both have the permit number, just arranged differently. I’ve dug patents pending medal cans twice, in Wyoming and Minnesota. Both were the one on the left (more common one).

Ozark day trip

I did something that I haven’t done in a decade or so the other day…I went digging in the Ozarks. Digging for cans in the Ozarks has been pretty much over with for a while now, but rarely a few remaining nuggets can be found out there. This was Just a short partial day trip, but I had something I wa...

Aw man…. This saddens me. I heard he had cancer, but was hoping for the best. Enjoyed talking with him at shows, and he went digging in the UP with us one time. Life is finite and fragile.

Andy and I got out west again recently. At the tail end of the trip on our way back to Portland, we found ourselves in the Mt Hood area and managed to find these seven Burgie beer quarts at a remote spot way out a goat path road. (The ale was from somewhere else.). Wow, the digging was tough, betwee...
