Snakes, spiders, insects peacefully slept in their warm homes. They expected warmer days. Suddenly, some very smelly things fell into their sweet home, the smoke began to blindfold, there was nothing to breathe. Cursing with the last words, they left the lovely dwelling. Who is hiding under the cold stones? Will they go back home? undoubtedly! Only let this two-legged freak go away. Even a go bite got sick! Whole mouth in smelly smoke. And from him, his stomach also seized ...
But Dara didn't even know about it.
The Trinity agreed that each of them chooses his well, and descends into it for research, and the rest insure the descent into it. And then they take out the pulled out sandbags and earth to find some historical artifacts or old coins in them.
This time he decided to go down himself. Fang controlled the winch, and the driver-controlled it. Dara went down the well. The bottom was dry. Dara just started filling empty bags with sand and clay. Content will be checked at the top. I had to dig for a long time. A total of 15 bags. Everyone is tired. Dara dug up one and a half meters, to the bottom.
Then the bottom rang with a metal detector, there was nothing. Switching the device to all modes, he found two signals, clear and good 47 and 49. It was iron.
Wrought iron. Presumably a bracket from the front door. As well as a cast-iron from the 20s of the 20th century.
There was nothing else. Rising on the winch Dara rang every centimeter of the well. In the middle, a ringing began. Dara carefully examined every brick with the Pointer, but he managed to find five coins. But in the dim light of a lantern whose battery was already running down, it was impossible to say exactly what kind of coins it was.
And the rest of the signals were an iron grid that kept bricks from falling. The grid was surprisingly made of thin strips of aluminum. In some places, it degraded and broke.
Closer to the top, at arm's length, I got two good signals. Dara pulled out from under the brick - a large yellow coin. Probably gold? You will need to consider it at the top!
The second signal was from under a brick; he had to be picked up with a tactical knife. The brick fell and fell to the bottom of the well. Behind the brick was a tin box of ammunition for a revolver. A small 12 cm by 3, with a height of 5 cm. The whole box was green, apparently copper. Dara shook her, there was something rustling.
Putting it in his pocket, he began to climb up.
The first well was investigated at 50 percent. In the world, Dara examined the finds, the first coins he raised were copper, that's all. The first empire, at the beginning of its reign. The condition was below average, the coins were 2 and 3 cents. 1802 and 1804 years. For them, at an auction, no more than 45 US cents could be obtained from the force. Garbage frankly speaking.
The big yellow coin was 22 grams offhand; it was tilla, a coin from the neighboring principality of Big An, minted in 1834. These coins were from 999 samples, they were smelted from native sand. And the sand was mined directly in the capital of Big Ann, in city canals, they threw several skins of sheep into the water for 1 week. Then they pushed out. After picking stuck golden grains of skins. For 1 week it turned out to wash up to 3 kg of gold.
Such a coin had a total circulation of 23,000, but no more than 100 coins were spinning on the market until 2030. The price was 22,700 dollars for them. Some collectors claimed that the keys to the search for ancient smelters were hidden in these coins. Allegedly, on the edge of the coins, code words were hidden. But is this true, or did not even want to check idle tales. I had to bother with old languages, rummage through the archives. No one wanted to waste time. Only after 15 years, Dara will read in the media that some kind of geek, nevertheless, studied and collected the data and was able to decrypt the secret. He found three workshops where 200 years ago they were engaged in the manufacture of counterfeit coins, as ordinary coins were supposed to be 900 samples, and counterfeit ones were 999 samples!
But it did not say there whether that geek found gold or not ...
But Dara decided to open a jar in the presence of only Fang. Who knew what could be there? Suddenly, some information on project 47086_1 did not want to contact the colonel again.
Taking a little breath, Dara decided to ring the bags, or rather their land. Pouring a sack, Dara and Fang called, hoping to find something.
Of the 15 bags, they found coins in only 4 of them. These were coins of 1805-1807, all copper, in the amount of 55 coins. Of these, only one was unique. For the remaining 54 coins, no more than $ 27 could be obtained because of their not very good preservation. And for a unique coin of 5 cents in 1806, 450 US dollars could be earned. Not bad at all. Sand and earth were again bagged and fertilized by the slopes of the mountains, in the hope that this would somehow help, the plants gain a foothold on them. Who knows, maybe this will work?
Fang was the second who began to descend into the well.
