Yes

If I can locate it I wii post a photo of my Carson City Double Eagle sourced from the Saddle Ridge Hoard which likely had been in one of the OP’’s pictured containers.

I thought they were from your emergency bunker!

I wonder what's better, original or cleaned

OK, found the photo of it.

Here is some trivia I came up with regarding the representation of Carson City gold in the Saddle Ridge Hoard:

By my count there were 9 Carson City $20 gold pieces in the hoard representing 6 dates from 1877 to the final year of issue at the Carson City mint for 20s in 1893. The three years with multiple dates (2 instead of 1) were 1883, 1884, and 1890. The
remaining years represented were 1877, 1892, and 1893.

Can was sticking out of the ground after the rains. Man, I would be metal detecting every square inch of that property. They probably already did.

As a footnote, of the three Saddle Ridge coins that have been posted on this thread, two are from the Carson City Mint and one from the San Francisco Mint.

As to the Carson City Double Eagles, that leaves only seven others that are not here pictured since the total number in the Saddle Ridge Hoard was nine.

One more 1890
Two more 1884
Two more 1883
One 1877
One 1893

So if my math is correct this thread has pictured to this point 22.2% of all the Carson City Double Eagles from the Hoard.

I'll let someone else do the math as to what percentage of all the San Francisco minted Double Eagles found in the Saddle Ridge Hoard are represented.

Was it over a Memorial Day Weekend that the discovery was made? Well, in any event, it was certainly a memorial event for the finders.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend ahead.
