The Ten Cent Treasure

Many years ago, 4 wagons from the Denver mint carrying brand-new dimes were on their way to Phoenix, Arizona when they vanished somewhere between a Crawford ranch and Montrose. A few years later, a side wash that dropped off into a river valley led treasure hunters to the wreckage of the 4 carts. They were able to collect several litres of dimes near the north rim of Black Canyon, along the Gunnison River, but there is still more treasure to be discovered.
