Allen in MT Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 This was my biggest nugget to date and weighed 5.56 oz. It has been traded for a 9 1/2' self contained S&S pickup camper. One can carry a nugget around for show and tell for so long. I really enjoy the use of the camper.Allen in MT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Dorado Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 AllenI can certainly understand selling a large nugget. I sold my 6.14 oz "Palm" nugget so I could build my ultimate Jewelry Studio, my very own man cave........ That nugget was really hard to let go of, but I really enjoy the cave and it has been good at getting the creative juices flowing. I was eve able to have an area set aside for a reloading bench.

John Hoser Oates Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 :angry-smiley-010[1]: I've sold my best a the best too. Cancer 3 times,Hep C treatments,college tuitions,and elbows being recontructed. Mother natures provides in direct proportion to needs but without a viable means of mining, replacement is gonna be impossible. My only "little" biggie left is a lousy 1.67 ozer just shy of golfball size-BUMMER-detector and dredging is absolutely imperative for me this summer John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
