During the Gold Rush, the price of a pickaxe varied depending on location and availability, but it typically ranged from $1 to $5 in the mid-1800s. In some areas, prices could be significantly higher due to demand and scarcity, sometimes reaching as much as $20. Overall, miners often needed to spend a considerable portion of their initial investment on basic tools like picks to begin their gold-seeking endeavors.
