Tvanwho, I don't think it was a water find and pretty sure it was land. Good luck on your hunt.

So far all my 24K sales have been with the dual coil package for $100 more. I do have one customer who thinks the best coil on the 24K is the one that was designed for it (10" Ellip DD). I understand his thinking, but am trying to educate him on the different soils, types of gold and situations he'll come across when in the field. How many people feel the $100 more spent on the detector is worth the small 6" coil? Des anyone else feel the stock coil is sufficient? This is my latest find with the 24K and it is a 22 gram specimen. Found at 7" with the small 6" coil. Notice the iron staining on it. I sure hope it cleans up well.

I did not do this video and it is good...BUT... my testing has shown much smaller of gold can be found. I'm talking tiny. The other aspect of the test is the Settings as I did not see what settings they had. Now in mineralized soils there will certainly be different results. Prety good test though for those who are not in the know.

When I detected Aussie Land a few years back I built some good customer relations. Since then I have sold a few machines to folks over there. If any of you Aussie's are wanting one, let me know and I'll see what we can do. Don't want to step on ones toes though and I might get told NO from White's but I heard things are changing for the better.

Here are a few quick photos of the latest 24K victim. This fine specimen was in some mineralized ground and had some serious iron staining. Comes in at 22 grams = 2/3 ozt, but not sure on the amount of gold yet. Only about 7" depth and found with the 6" concentric coil on the new White's 24K. I'll try to get it cleaned up next week and post some more pictures as I think this one will be a beauty when done. This is my favorite piece so far with the 24K.

Wow, Now that is a pile of gold. Fantastic finds and thanks for sharing. I love seeing the varieties of character in each nugget. Hats off to you two.

His 1st gold with the new White's GoldMaster 24K Metal Detector. Boy the heavy thick 18K gold ring with diamonds is a beauty.

Oh Lunk.....you broke my heart with that 1st nugget photo, so cool. Fabulous report and sharing of the Hot Rocks too. Seeing the tiny pickers pulled from the same site as you used your other machines certainly attests to the NOX capabilities. Now if I can get some more coils in, I'll be able to put a few more smiles on customers faces. Keep it up my friend.

Western & Eastern Treasures magazine does a Silver & Gold Annual issue and another customer of mine was featured. Many of you saw the photos posted earlier this summer. Some gobstopper saves/discoveries are in this issue, so I recommend you order one online. Congratulations to Duane and Sarah on their Golden Treasures and thanks for allowing me to earn your detector business again.

Now that is a fine video there my friends. Not only did Tom do a fantastic job of showing the detector, he actually took the time to explain each button very well. Hats off to you Tom Boykin and thanks for sharing Steve. Heck, I learned so much I'm heading out to find some gold.

Great to see some of your Success Digger Bob with the new 24K. But more important than that..is you on social media sharing your knowledge. Great to see you and the finds.

Another interesting specimen discovery with the White's 24K. Here is a 10.8 gram (just over 1/3 ozt) I recovered the other day. Approx 7 to 8" deep and heard it fine with good headphones. I posted more details and info on the main Prospecting forum so go check it out. This detector is an easy and exciting machine to run and my success has been better than expected.

Better to wait a week and get it right. I'm on board and will let me customers know.

Interesting find with the White’s 24K the other day. Usually I find rough raw natural gold in ore dumps. I find round smooth nuggets in the deserts and ancient river channels, even find them in tailing on occasion along with a few other places. Here is nice chunky 1/3 oz speci with semi clear white quartz on one side glittering with gold particles and broken wire like seams. The top side has some rough quarts all blackened (not sure what it is) and a nice rounded crown of gold on top. On the edge are a few perfect tiny quartz crystals. Something had to cause the smooth rounding and I have not witnessed this in ore dump finds. Anyone have a guess of the black and what caused rounding on the crown? Is there a way to get the black off without changing anything else? The 24K has been a fun machine to test and I’m very pleased with it so far on the sites I have selected. Thanks for your opinions and expertise.

Great way to pop the ZED cherry with a couple golden ones (and a cold one of course). So you get skunked on occasion? That is why we enjoy those little ones so much when we do find gold. Being able to continue even after the goose egg days is what separates most hunters. Keep it up my friend and thanks for sharing.

Nice finds Chris. Just goes to show there is still good gold out there. Keep at it and sharing your stories/finds.

Steve, You are correct and I do find my share of pieces of broken pull tabs and small foil bits, shoe eyelets and beads from broken necklaces. Coins are tough to find in my courts as all the general purpose machines find them. So I take a detector that can find the tiny targets they miss. 15 to 20 coins worth $1.50 or 1 diamond stud = priceless. Chuck, The stories of the finds are important too, but my time is so limited I keep them short.

Using the new White's 24K Urban Style. You don't have time to get out to gold fields & learn your new detector? Take it to a local volley ball court & have fun. Learn sounds, target ID & depth on those small treasures. GOAL to show the detector has more capabilities than most folks imagine. Realize the majority of detectors people use will not find tiny targets and the 24K was build to do just that. How to pay for 24K real fast? Find the wife a diamond earring, all is good. Not only did I find 5 stud earrings, I recovered 7 backs & some tiny #9 dove shot, plus other bits of chains, bracelets & such. Just another way to keep your skills tuned and bring home some bling. On a side note, How many of you have used a gold detector to find diamond earrings and other micro jewelry? I know my buddy in Hawaii Terry C has done so and maybe he'll post a pic. Anyone else, please share your stories and photos too.

Those North Nevada nuggets are top prize finds. The folds, seams and crevices in the gold is stunning. Keep at it my friend and hope the Insurance kicks in..or you'll be selling the gold.

No, I'm pretty sure that is Josh Bohmker? Not 100% certain though. Besides, I don't look rugged enough to pull off the mountain man theme. Josh does quite well.

Owning it would be a pain the ass as too many of the wrong kind of people would be interested in stealing it. I feel the owner would be most wise to have it on display at a casino, bank or museum. Let them worry about the security and safety...Be sure it is insured too. Nice bit of info, thanks for sharing.

How rare is this? One of my customers has been finding native Michigan copper nuggets with his Minelab Equinox 800 and said I could share this amazing discovery. Kind of makes my nuggets look like dinks. What do you think something like this is worth?

White's 24K is starting to get a little depth now. I just pulled this one at 8" while using the 6" round concentric coil. It is just bigger than my thumb nail and weighs in at 2 grams (30 grains) and was found with the 24K. I still have a few of my initial order not spoken for (at this time). Contact me for details if you are interested in 1.

One of the things that intrigues me about natural raw gold is the many offbeat ways nature creates Au. This rare (to me) almost sheet type gold is a 1st. It looks as if the liquid metal cooled right between two quarts seams and then just popped out. You can still see small rough white quarts crystals still attached to both sided of this beauty. YES it is! You may think it is ugly and that is fine, but since I own it, I say it is a beauty. Just bigger than my thumb nail and weighs in at 2 grams (30 grains) and was found with the 24K while using the 6" concentric coil at about 8" depth. This one is an Idaho piece and a little unique compared to the others found in years past at that site. I'm wondering if I should tumble it a little to get a bit smoother shine or use a wire brush to add a little sparkle or leave it as is? What would you do with something like this?
