Half Pound Of Gold & 3.74 Pounds Of Silver

[Seener53]

Talk about good sites, wow. You should get another banner for finding that many silvers and one for finding that much gold! What do you attribute your success to? You must have a high traveled area/s. Your arms must look like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Haaaa lol Digging and lifting all that booty.

Thank you trebelhunter, I hunted public sites that others frequent often to detect. And I also wanted to make a point to show that almost anybody can do this! Being a rookie in the hobby I made it my goal to find more than the "top dogs" in my area for the year
It was allot of time, gas money, parking fees etc. but I pulled it off
Honestly I think I would of made allot more money working at mcdonalds than all the time I spent hunting lol

 

Amazon Forum Fav 👍

Cry Of The Eagle: History And Legends Of The Cherokee Indians And Their Buried Treasure - Grab it through Amazon!

That is dedication and hard work right there. Great job on all the great finds.

Thank you Ahab, right on Bro!

 

[Seener53]

Great finds!!..Thats a way to end the year. Were your Silver coins all dug? Or some from CRH?

Thanks Diggin N Dumps, all the coins were dug.
Crh is another story, didn't keep track but I did get several hundred coins that way also

lol, maybe if your finds were 'average' , but I think that nearly $10k worth of gold might push you from the burger-flipper's wage towards a middle manager's salary!

I just want to find one ring! lol in the mail would be fine... you rock!

 

[Fitzwilk]

Silver wise I found 324 Silver coins Totaling $44.35 in silver.

I assume that's just the face value of the silver coins.

Impressive is not the word.
Can't say the word because I am drooling too much.
CongratZ!

 

[Seener53]

WOW! Now that's a hoard! Super bling!

Thanks Msbeepbeep

 

[Seener53]

Congratulations on an amazing year. Will you keep your booty or sell?

Thank you terfpan, I'm keeping it all you have no idea how much time and what I had to go through to find all that. I'm a hoarder

Thanks Flex, remember that the gold isn't pure. It's all different karats, so if you brake it all down and separate the karats it averages out to about 12k a gram. So your figure of 10K gets chopped in half to about 5K. So back to flipping burgers lol.

That is correct Fitzwilk, melt value would be $44.35 X 14.6 (today's going rate).

Congrats on an amazing year. That pile should easily compete with those of even the most experienced diggers out there. Sure beats mine.... Just curious, do you dig everything or just low and high conducters? And do you hunt with open screen on the etrac, or with discrimination?
Happy hunting in 2014. Going to be hard to beat that total but I hope you do.

Thank you silversweeper, in parks I cherry pick my targets but at beaches I'm less picky. I use little discrimination, running on about the 26-27 line.

 

[robfinds]

Got to be impressed with that haul.

 

[Inches from Insanity]

Wow! That is a boatload of precious metal! I can't imagine how much other "stuff" you had to dig to come up with all that gold and silver!
