Trailertrash Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Nice! The last piece of gold I found had a similar story. Heavily placer mined wash, that everybody and his brother has hit in the last 100 years, and one nice piece left for me! Been back over that wash at least ten times, without finding another speck. Keep up the good work. Regards, Kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOHNM Posted March 6, 2020 Author Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) Thanks you all . I'm not complaining about finding the nugget but I've had detector for two years and first nugget I've found. Lots of you guys are really consistent in finding them. Rather be consistent than lucky. Edited March 6, 2020 by JOHNM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenJ Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 They say the first one is always the hardest and I found that to be true. It took me until the end of my first season to find a nugget with a metal detector. My second season I found a lot with the detector but nothing even close to the size of yours sir, in fact I'm still looking to break into the 1 gram club let alone the 10 gram!

Hey Allen J,...Check out my YouTube Channel at: ARIZONA GOLD NUGGET VENTURES,... as maybe some of my "Where to look for gold" suggestions may be of help to you in your pursuit of those 1 Gram and larger nuggets.
