In 1877, a miner prospecting in the Black Hills of South Dakota staked his claim to a gold mine. At a loss to name the mine, he noticed the York Rite Chapter charm on his watch chain and called it the Keystone mine. The town of Keystone, SD ("The home of Mt. Rushmore") was named after the mine, its name originating from a Masonic watch charm.
