Well done Rob.

I always keep a leatherman and a comb in my truck just in case for those cholla's.   If I would of known I could of pointed you to another location by Tombstone.    Congrats on the gold.  Nice ring BTW.

Congrats on the gold.  Well / Hard earned for sure.  Keep it up and you Nevada privileges will be pulled.  LOL

 

Very nice, it seems like you don't see gold like that coming out of Rye patch everyday.

Rye Patch is known for the chevron type gold.  It is getting harder to find thou.  

Congrats on the gold.

  I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Not sure about that. Car theft is common even without keys left. It is an equal nightmare scenario to come back after detecting and the truck is gone. I always have my keys with me and at a safe place in my backpack.

Me too.  I also have a spare in my truck that is very well hidden.   I can replace my glass for a lot less money then I can my keys.

Just jump the fence at the refueling station in GB and bribe one the pilots to take you for a ride.

Air Force does like their Controlled Climate and I never argued 😂. First time I ever lived in Snow Country and I enjoy it so far.  Grew up in Florida and Arizona.  I’ll be back home in Arizona next month to hit a few of my old spots if I can remember where they are at!

I grew in the the snow country but the Army brought me to AZ where I got spoiled.  I will never leave, I love the heat.

Airforce made you soft. 😄   The Arizona heat made me dislike that white stuff.  LOL

Well done sir on the gold.

I would get something like this.   https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0899GZ3WR?tag=slickdeals09-20&ascsubtag=d4c6637431e011ecb9e87eba4bb8dbe80INT     

There are coupons as of 10/20/21 that brings this down to $240.

For me the 6000 hits the mark as a patch hunter.
Chasing weight is what I like, and the roaming about and camping.

Beautiful pup you have there.  Looks like you may have an older one also.  I noticed the dog ramp packed away.

I have a strange feeling that this will be a big seller for them.

There are a lot of interesting items on Kickstarter and Indiegogo.  Just keep in mind to invest or purchase at your own risk.

Congrats on the gold.

I wish I had known this years ago..instead the dealer(in Az) who sold it to me said "well look at the price of the 5000..there is a reason it costs so much..because it is a proven detector". Bull Pucky! Buddy you wasted 5 years of my life!

Didn't you buy this used from his classified section?  

I know DOC sells these timing labels.    https://docsdetecting.com/product/soil-timing-labels-2-primarily-for-gpx4800-and-gpx5000/

But I definitely own the "crotchety old grumble guts" part. It's actually one of the few benefits of getting older. I've always been one to call it like I see it, and age removes what little reserve I had, perhaps not always for the best.

Well I hope you don't get into the Curmudgeon stage.  LOL

Didn't you telling a similar story several years ago with the same ending? Maybe it was somebody else or you are telling it again. Either way, nice gold nugget.

Rest assured that your memory is solid.  I am surprised that she is back after all the crap she posted about certain folks.

I think Gerry's mind is at ease about the 6000 and specimen gold.  Hopefully Gerry will post a picture or two. 😉

Looks better cleaned up.  I thought your battery was going to die before you found it.  LOL

Many think you need to invest thousands of dollars to find nuggets, when actually if you have a plan and some areas in mind, you might just surprise yourself.  

   Great advice.   Thanks for the video. 

I do like the OZ Pig also.  Congrats on the gold.

you want to find large nuggets, and not spend a lifetime doing it, go where they have been found before.

That's gold right there. 😉
