Watching a Gold rush on tv! Western.

Not sure of the historical accuracy of the
show you're watching.
(I haven't seen it.)

But, there have indeed been gold rushes.
Perhaps, the most famous, was the California
gold rush, of 1849.

Alaska also had a gold rush, noted in history.

Even North Carolina had one.
Though, not as famous.

And, of course, the Comstock Lode
was a silver rush in Nevada.
Virginia City, was alive and poppin'.
