Gerry in Idaho Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Thanks for sharing all your Sunbaker finds folks. It is amazing to see what is out there and just laying on the surface. Mitchel, Norvic, Chris, Davsgold all have serious finds. In my opinion the best of them all is GoldGetter from CA. Not only a SunBaker, but boy you better have great eyes to see such a monster. Thanks for sharing everyone and keep it up as some fantastic finds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Herschbach Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I will always wonder how many feet I missed that one by - not many. I have never found a pound plus nugget myself but I have been lucky enough to be around when several were found. Steve's lunker I would have passed by on my first detecting trip to Ganes because it was where a lot of the large gold was found sitting on top in earlier decades. I have a picture of me proudly displaying a 3/4 oz nugget (or something like that) when that three pounder was somewhere a stone's throw nearby. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
