Alaskan Nugget 2006

[cream43]

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.

That is a super nugget. Great job. I hope to make it to Alaska too, some day. Hope you find many, many more.

So amazingly beautiful!! Gold in ring form sure must be nice, but to find it in its natural state!? WOW is all I can say!

I wonder just how many ounces I would need to find to make a living at the nugget shooting?

I don't know if I could do enough in a year to do that but it sure would be great to do.

What a great nugget.

Have you done any panning there? Might be a good hobby to get into also, but you gotta love MDing for nuggets like that!
