This is my first nugget ever! It weighed in at 4.78 oz and was found at Ganes Creek in August 2006. I found two others on that trip, a .47oz and .24oz. My detector is a White's MXT.
WOW!! Congratulations. I've heard lots of good stuff about Gaines Creek. I've seen and held nuggets that detectorists have gotten from that area. It must be quite the popular location up there in the land of the midnight sun. Someday I hope to visit Alaska. Do some detecting, panning, fishing.
Good lord! Someone fire up the defibrillator, my heart just skipped a beat..lol. That's one nice piece of gold formed by the prettiest jeweler...mother earth. WTG
