Tin Cup

In 1860, a miner dipped his tin cup into a stream to get a drink and found gold flakes in the water. This is where the name Tin Cup comes from. In 1879, the first gold mine was started, called the Gold Cup Mine. But the mine was short lived and by 1884, the ore was running out. The Gold Cup finally closed up for good in 1917. Tin Cup became a ghost town.
