The Sanderson monument is entirely made of cast zinc. That's why it looks both different and better than the stone markers. It's made of different pieces, some ordered "off the shelf" from a catalog, some custom cast. Sounds like hollow metal if you knock on it.
@@TravelswithTommyandLori They are cool! And once you've seen a few you won't miss any. The distinctive color is a "dead" giveaway! 😁 There were many styles, but I see obelisks more than anything else.
@@christophershoemaker1109 I'm so grateful you chose to watch this video. We both love learning new things about one of our favorite past times, and little known fact, we're also both big into things like coin and precious metals, so this kinda ties both together. We will definitely be on the lookout from now on!!
Hey y'all I love y'all going to old graves. Y'all might be interested in one in Gilmer County Ga. It's the Tolona cemetery, it's old and it has slaves graves in it. It's on a hill with a beautiful over look are the last time I was there it beautiful one.
Sanderson? Anyone else thinking Hocus Pocus?
That is an amazing headstone!
The Sanderson headstone was amazing! Great find guys
Thanks!! It was so weird that it looked the newest but was clearly the oldest!
