DannyRoman reacted to Foster88 in When gold was $17 an oz.... in the Wild West.
Well, it’s been a long time since gold was just $17 USD an Oz. It was the 1840’s the last time the world saw those prices.
Anyway, there’s a great documentary on YouTube called, ‘Ghost Towns of the American Gold Rush’. That’s the exact title, I know YouTube can send you down a rabbit hole. Been there, done that.
I’m just finishing watching it now, it wasn’t called the Wild West for nothing!!
I wonder how much of that gold is in our gold coins today. Most likely most of it.
If you have a bit of time spare, watch this documentary, it’s a few years old and a little grainy in parts but it’s fascinating.
