Time Capsule from 1795 to Be Opened

[Todash]

Cool stuff, if you're a history buff in general or an American history buff specifically. This thing is nearly 220 years old.

There is probably a twinkie in there too.

And still good to go!

That is as cool as a lime slurpie. It reminds me of Freemasons and cornerstones in the thriller genre.

This is now a thing that I will say.

This is now a thing that I will say.

Sure enough!

I love history. I,especially love American history. The wonder of reading how a nation was born.

Very cool story. Just one thing has me scratching my head. "What we know the box contains, based on the notes that we have, is a Paul Revere plate, papers, and coins from the 1600s," said Massachusetts Secretary of State William Galvin..."

Paul Revere was born in 1735.

I was thinking just the coins were from 1600s, not necessarily the rest of the stuff.

Yes, it's just the coins from the 1600s. In other words, they were already quite old when the capsule was interred.

Paul Revere was born in 1735.

The box was opened before in the nineteenth century so they know what was in it them.

The very first one! And a few cock-roaches, too!

 

[fushingfeef]

Very cool, I hope there are some surprises!
I tried burying a time capsule when I was a kid (a jar full of stuff) but my little brother dug it up a few days later...I shouldn't have told anyone about it.

Was there a Walmart ice cream bar?

Ah, I was tired. I read it all together. In other words, I was thinking, "How could there be a Paul Revere box and papers from the 1600s?"

 

[arista]

This is really cool...I like time capsules.

 

[Out of Order]

Sam Adams was in on this I see. Any beer found?

Right, well, they didn't exactly write a clear sentence there. They should have put "coins from the 1600s" first and then there would have been no confusion. But, writing on a deadline these things happen.

...I wonder if his and the Raiders first Gold Record's in there?....
