● ABOUT VIRGINIA CITY:

● The Virginia City Historic District, located halfway between Reno and Carson City, Nevada, includes the 19th century mining towns of Virginia City, Gold Hill, Silver City, and Dayton, as well as open lands containing cultural sites associated with mining activities and the Comstock.

● Virginia City, Nevada, developed as a boomtown with the 1859 discovery of the COMSTOCK LODE, The FIRST MAJOR SILVER DEPOSIT DISCOVERY IN THE UNITED STATES, with numerous mines opening! The population of VIRGINIA CITY peaked in the MID 1870s, with an estimated 25,000 residents.

The 19th-century mining bonanza that turned Virginia City into the most important industrial city between Denver and San Francisco, was the result of the \'COMSTOCK LODE\' A rich deposit of Silver ore discovered by Henry Comstock, part-owner of the property on which it was discovered, in June 1859.Gettinghis nickname for only making pancakes for breakfast, Henry T. “Pancake” Comstock was referred to as one of the original finders of gold in Gold Canyon, just south of Virginia City. Comstock was said to have been lazy, employing American Indians on his claims, and was a fast-talker. Since he was on the scene of the original findings, his name stuck almost instantly.●

💰MOUNTAINS OF SILVER AND GOLD!

The city, Virginia City, born in 1859, only took a year for miners to become proficient in digging underground to find both gold and silver. One early method included square-set timbering, developed by a German engineer, which allowed miners to safely extract ore from hundreds of feet below the surface. Virginia City quickly advanced in many ways, and because of the wealth established here, it was one of the reasons Nevada became a state. With more than 100 mines in the Comstock area, seven million tons of silver ore were produced – equating to more than $600 million in both silver and gold in today’s money. Among many things, this money helped to build San Francisco to what it is today as well as finance the Union in the Civil War. Irishman John Mackay came to the Comstock as a poor miner with not a penny to his name. However, it wasn’t long until Mackay acquired the Kentucky Mine (in three years, it produced $3.6 million in ore!) and was superintendent for the Bullion Mine. Mackay then joined forces with fellow Irishmen James Flood, James Fair and William O’Brien to construct a new mine that they believed would be the most prosperous endeavor yet – they were right. The Consolidated Virginia Mine (aka Con Virginia) boasted the “Big Bonanza” and the four Irishmen became known as Silver Kings. John Mackay, who had the largest share, was now “the richest miner on earth.” Starting in 1873, the Con Virginia and the California Mine (Mackay’s other mine), produced about $3 million per month for three years. After 22 years in production, the two mines would produce $180 million in both silver and gold. Silver and gold made Virginia City an iconic mining town, one that will Forever be recognized as one of the greatest. It also formed the character of Nevada, and to a greater extent, the Nation as a whole.

As I can remember, when the \'Eisenhower Dollar\' was removed from circulation in 1978, so were most slot machines accepting and spitting out the silver dollars. Those were the days, as they are gone now. Everything is electronic.●
