mn90403 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Well done Reg. I've rubbed both of my boys noggins for you and James. I hope both of you drench your pant legs in the fields and share those pictures here. Mitchel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geof_junk Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Reg why don't you get a photo of it in your mouth, so " Gerry in Idaho " will have a target to aim for. ? Just kidding Gerry. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GotAU? Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Relic hunters already know this, but I’d think that many who search for nuggets and natural gold would have dismissed detecting in those plowed fields like the one Reg found that nugget. There are probably several disturbed places like roads, plowed and fallow fields, etc, where many detectors just simply haven’t been because we (beginners at least) just assume that the area is too disturbed. I know I would have dismissed it, but not anymore! Good job Reg, you showed many of us not to assume and dismiss the types of areas one can find natural gold! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few places with worked fields I’d love to have a go, but the junk to gold ratio scares me off (aswell as them being private property). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly ask the property owner like Reg obviously did! That’s a great photo of the two together like that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aureous Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Reg knows this area well and has found gold in adjoining public land.... being geologically wise, he knows full well which direction the gold was headed. Experience pays off ?☺️ 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
