Oh.... to clarify.... I didn’t say The Yanks 2and 3 got 5 ounces..... 

I just stated ...that wouldn’t be bad... ?....

they could post what they actually got... 

That is what I thought!  Results will vary.

He might have said the same thing about my trip ... but I showed what I got.

I don't know how he could find anything without a working detector.  Then again, do you really need a detector to find gold in Australia?  It's just lying around everywhere. :poostorm:

I am only joking, Mitchel.   LOL.  I know how hard you worked.   Condor too, I am sure.  You guys are both hardcore. I hope to get there some day.

So, do you think I should get an Xcoil?

Maybe then I would have found some gold in Australia?

I have to agree with Paul.  You just have to be over the gold.  I think the 10" is good for those real tight creek beds you cannot fit the 14" coil in and for dink patches where you know everything left is 0.2g and less.  The 10" Xcoils make these scream out at you.  So I can go back to these places after I have been skunked a few times and gain back a little confidence with some dinks.  Depending on the gold's orientation, sometimes these are hard to get out of the scoop using the 14" coil.  (sometimes I use the GM1000 as a pinpointer for those)

To me, getting an Xcoil that is bigger than the 14" isn't going to help me much because I already have access to a 19".  And when I am in multinugget washes, I move dirt.  So it really doesn't matter if I had another bigger coil for the area. 

But heck, that is how I rationalize it.
