shep Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 Just an ol' modded 4500 w/ my trusty Nuggetfinder 17E mono. I don't fiddle w/ any special settings. The little ones were 4-5", the big'n was a good 16"+. First sound was a nice mellow repeating sound. The digging was easy as it was rocks and powder. Dug w/ pick so far and finished w/ pin-pointer and scoop. It probably looked funny. I can barely feel the vibration and hearing the pin-pointer is even worse! Had a hole w/ my head in it, trying to hear pointer, but saw the gold on the bottom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
