I am off work for another 3 weeks for holidays. The last couple of days I was out hunting for coins in an older part of Edmonton. It was raining off and on, so I got out between rain storms. The medium sized coil, 8.5" concentric coil bangs real hard on coins, and still maintains a decent level of depth.
Here's the best of the last couple of days......Lots of US coins buried up here. Anyone got any ID on that military button?
On Monday, I spent a day out of town shovelling someone's old tailings into my highbanker, and was really surprised at how much gold I got. I guess each year the river replenishes the gold in the bedrock, and someone's tailings make an excellent trap for the gold.
Here is my micro sluice which I used to further reduce the concentrates from the highbanker. The rest I hand pan to nearly pure gold.
