I received a call from a good friend of mine, who knows I collect coins. He was walking and kicked a gold 1903 British Half-Sovereign out of the snow in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. He didn't know if it was real gold or not, so he called me. (I can only wish to be so lucky.) He told me to come by...

Thats right, found $24.50 in gold plated half dollars: Most were in horrible condition.. I must admit how let down I was by seeing these contrast against the copper edges of the other coins... Almost as let down as you were after reading that I didn't find a box full of gold eagles, but I must...

Up for sale is a slightly used Whites Spectra V3 Metal Detector... It was built in 2009... I am selling this machine for a friend that can no longer use it... He is telling me that it has very little hours on it... May be less than 60...It will come with the original box, Double D Coil...

If you want a real piece of honest advice from a veteran of collecting, trading, selling and buying in large quantity ; I recommend that you only buy pure silver or gold (99.9% or 99.99% / .999 fine or .9999 fine), because come sell time, you're going to face mass scrutiny and assaying...

Took the entire family (Mom, dad, wife and two kids) to meet up with GravelWasher down on the American River. What a great day! Mom and wife sat in chairs and emptied buckets into the Bazooka sluice. Dad was a digging machine and I ran bucket back and forth. managed to dig a large hole down...

Here is most of the gold I found on my weekend trips. I still have a bucket of concentrates to go through... maybe get the total up to three grams. Maybe not as much gold as I would like, but I had a great time finding it! Most trips my 7 and 9 year old went with me. One trip had the other...

I just turned 35 a few weeks ago and have always been interested in treasure hunting and prospecting for gold. Since I was born and raised in California, the 49er gold rush was taught in 4th grade history class. This opened me up the world of this fine metal "GOLD" Now I have moved away from the...

Hey fellow prospectors and treasure hunters. I started this thread to see what people had to say about gold still in South Carolina. I aq'uired a small tract of land in Smyrna, York County. Land has been untouched since the California rush (except the little old lady that lived there since...

On May 8th, 2012, I took my week old Minelab E-TRAC to a local park to practice. I had been detecting for over a year with my Teknetics Delta 4000, but while the E-TRAC offered more horsepower, it was also going to take longer to master. After digging plenty of clad and lot's of trash for an...

Heya everyone; I wanted to ask a simple question. How much would you pay for a California legal dredge? Lets just say that you could have a 100% legal dredge but it had to be fully underwater, electric and limited to no larger than a 1.5" hose. Run time would be 2 hours non stop dredging, use...

Whelp since we are all still here, who is going to go out and get some today? :D Post up your pics from any Doomsday prospecting. :) Weather is crap here right now so I wont have anything to share but I would like to see what the rest of you might get on the Day that the World was to end! :D

I looked through almost every thread that had the hit "Digital Scale" to see what I could find and noticed that it really varies from person to person. Quite a few people mentioned the scales from Harbor Freight. I would prefer it to be a pocket scale that I could take with me, but I am open to...

hey guys just a quick question. I have a royal 30" stream sluice box and I went to my local shop today to buy a classifier screen for a 5 gallon bucket. The guy said to just classify to 8 mesh. Is this about right? or should I clasify down smaller? Up here in northern california(Almost in...

Hey guys, I have a question. I have a royal 30" sluice box and was wanting to make a homemade highbanker with a recirculating water supply using a 1000gph pump in my garage. My question is... I think 30" isnt going to be quite long enough for the material to travel without losing some gold in...

I live in a area that has a decent amount of dry washes with specks of gold in the wash. I am looking to purchase equipment that allows me to pan for the gold in the washes (I will be bringing my own water in large containers with my ATV). I found this lot of gold mining equipment on a...

Hi all It's been a long time since I have posted some finds so here are some from today... BTW if anybody knows some of the buttons please post info :) I will be researching them this week.. Sorry if the pics are to big or out of order..

This is my best nugget yet, don't want to give too much information, but it came from lucious Southern California soil! I was so excited when I found it, I couldn't stop shaking. It's only 1.6 grams, but it's bigger than any other flakes I've found!

I found it at a small antique shop, it is a small half-frosted cube with gold-leaf etchings on it. The etchings seem to be of Chinese origin. The cube is very rough, and seems to be hand carved. It was an a relatively old silk lined box when I purchased it. Sorry the photo is not the clearest...

There is a 7 which has circular writing talks about the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago instead of a gold seal that says Gold Certificate. It has been in circulation, but there are no tears in this bill? Would this be worth anything more than the $100.00 it states. I have a bunch of old...

I have really been very tempted to trade in some of my coin roll hunting finds for gold lately, and today I did just that. I traded 7 rolls of 40%ers ($70 face), and 4 rolls of 90% FDR dimes ($20 face) for this beauty: And then I bought this one with some savings: Before you tear me a new...

hey im interested in looking to go gold prospecting with someone around ring gold ga i also metal detect. pm me if ya wanna talk!

Today I went out and looked around at the creek I pan at because it just rained like crazy and it's finally running really good. Sometimes I'll find nuggets laying on some topdirt after a big storm. But anyways... I noticed a few areas just before the creek took a couple of sharp turns it looked...

So yesterday I was looking around trying to find a new spot to prospect at the creek that I usually pan at when I came to a part where goes under the road and through 2 culvert pipes. Since the creek is dried up right now I decided to go through the pipe and look around. There wasn't any...
