Lunk

Ah yes, that’s called “greenhorn gold”. Congrats to both of them!

Merry Christmas Gerry!

Beaut of a specie Reese, WTG!

Good job on the cleaning, Gerry - they look great!

You’re welcome, and best of luck to you.

Out of those 2 package options, I would choose the 13”x11” mono for its ground coverage and depth advantage, with the 11”x7” DD-FC coil for its superior sensitivity to the smallest gold nuggets, and also for its iron ID capability to ferret out the non-ferrous targets from amongst the iron in trashy spots.

Doc, you have my sincere condolences; prayers offered.

Nah, Gerry just squirrels them all away in his mouth.

Can’t wait!

WTG Chris!

Yep, it was at a measured 24” depth about 30’ out from an old raked and detected nugget patch, all by its lonesome; pretty typical for lunker nuggets. It gave a broad, faint low-high response. And since it was virgin ground, I knew it had to be one of only two natural objects…a multi-ounce gold nugget or an iron meteorite. I would have been ecstatic with either, but glad it was the former. Full details here.

That’s a keeper for sure, WTG Reese!

It was actually a channel flipper that warbled just like the dozen or so boot tacks I had dug all that day. But as I dug closer to the targets hiding spot 18 inches below the surface, it changed to a screaming high-low response. The 3.5-ounce AZ nugget in the photo below gave a low-high response, however.

Yep.

I like the look of that fat quarter-ounce chunk! Nice going Reese, and hopefully it’s just the tip of the iceberg…🤩
