I know I never thought I would find something like this.

And thanks for the banner vote, never found anything worthy of it till now.
So here I am sitting at work, wanting to go detecting instead. :D
Love this hobby.

Good find Dale

Nothing like this hobby! One day nothing, the next could be gold. I love it!


Congrats on a stellar find!

I am still in disbelief. I hope the year continues like this.

Man that’s huge! I’m surprised the dog didn’t run away with that. Milk bones for life and then some.

Wow Dale, what an awesome find. 80 grams just about paid for your metal detector with that find. :icon_thumleft:

Well after getting back from the gold doctor I am happy, and must I say very happy to report that it was indeed all 14k. Now all I have to do is relies this doesn’t happen on every hunt. :hello2:

Well thanks again for all the nice post. I haven’t been able to go back out and look for the missing Jesus from the crucifix, but am going out this weekend. My neighbor informed me that if I sold it for melt value I would burn in hell. :o Such encouragement, huh? Oh well got to look anyway.
