Goldstone was a town in Hill County, Montana. This sign is a memorial to the once thriving community.
According to "Hill County" by Emily Ann Mayer and the Clack Museum, Goldstone received its name from the first postmaster, Frank Novak, who picked up a stone that looked like gold.
As shown in the last photograph, the Sweet Grass Hills sit to the west of the former town site. The people of Goldstone had a nice view.
