Nevada Nugget Hunting With Garrett Axiom

[Steve Herschbach]

Condor and I met Andy out in the desert during a brief spell of good weather for a little detector testing and nugget hunting. Andy put together some good video footage during the trip of the Axiom in action.

Thanks for the nice video Steve.

Thank Andy - all I did was repost it and the photo from that other thread. The video appeared late in the thread so I thought it might get missed unless it had its own thread.

I had a feeling that 2nd piece was way more than a couple of grams. Nice find. I was quite surprised how close your pick was lying on the ground next to some of your digs & the detector wasn't nutting off. Wouldn't get away with that with the 6000. Not in our quiet ground & higher end settings here in New Zealand.

Thanks for sharing.

When he said 2 grams, I said to my wife, no way is that 2 grams it's 4 to 5 grams.  I hope he lets us know how much it weighs.  And thankfully he did.

I like the nugget on the right. It looks just like a sitting dog.

Glad to see you enjoying the Axiom and finding some nice gold.

Is that your best piece so far Andy?

For those who don't know, he's been chasing old coins/relics/rings for many years, but the pursuit of gold nuggets is pretty new (the last few years) to Andy.

Well done my friend.
