For most people the downtown
renovation project has meant
moving into the future with
something new.
But for one Heppner man, the
project has turned out to be a
look into the past.
When crews began tearing up
Heppner's streets and exposing
what used to be the dirt roads in
town, Sam Schmidt saw an
opportunity to discover what had
been buried there many years
ago.
Armed with a good metal
detector Schmidt began spending
his evenings combing the
exposed streets for old coins- and
he found quite a few.
He found half dollars, dimes,
quarters and other coins, some
dating back to 1865.
"The oldest one I found was an
1865 half dollar," he said,
displaying
his find on the
Homecoming potato feed set, Oct. 9
will be available and all meals
include a drink and a dessert.
Hie potato feed is sponsored by
the Heppner High School (HHS)
cheerleaders.
The HHS homecoming game
against Stanfield will get under
way at 7:30 p.m.

A baked potato feed will be
held on Thursday, Oct. 9, from 6-
8 p.m. at the Morrow County
Fairgrounds annex building.
Prices are as follows: baked
potato with chili meal, $4, and

counter at the Gazette-Times.
Perhaps the most valuable
would be a Lewis and Clark
1805 bronze commemorative
medallion. He said a coin dealer
in Portland said it might be worth
54,000. Although he didn’t find
one, Schmidt said a silver
medallion of the same type in
good shape, is worth $20,000
today.
Other items he found included
clay marbles, military buttons an
CBEC
opium bottle, silver wedding
band and tokens from several
taverns including one called the
Belvedere
Schmidt said he had expected
to find most of his coins on the
east side of the street were the
saloons were located in Heppner,
but instead says he discovered
most of his collection in front of
Peterson's Jewelers and Gardner's
on the west side of the street.

that a retirement of capital
credits for the years of 1972 and
1973 and six percent of the 1996

"The Board of Directors is
pleased to be in a financial
position to do this and we hope
