Ohoooooooooo pooooooo what if I get suspended in the intervening time? And are we talking the weight equivalent of 24 K or that plus impurities and matrix?

Terry this is a super idea! even if there isn't a "prize" to be had! We all already won! Merry Christmass and Happy New Year to al! P.S. that's a old dime! its 4 years older than me! Don't you have anything newer? :):):)

So Terry your saying if I get a Tesoro I will soon have a pile of nuggets like that.....
 

Good Critique on figuring! that's the very same way I chose to fix a sandwich without the same parts as you described! :)
 

let me take another guess at something totally different, Terry.
in the first photo of you on your website, you're standing in Franconia Wash.
what does that win me if I'm right?

Umm, Sure! Just make sure it's the Lobo Super Traq, and that you are detecting a place that actually has nuggets to find!:occasion14:
 

26.52 grams
thanks for the chance:dontknow:
 


OBNOXIOUS BUZZER!!!! Grams DW, Grams!!! My sister was born in El Paso, so I'll give you another chance! :laughing7:

I did the math for you Terry...
5.5 OZ= 171.0665 grams. Not my guess though.
I'am going to resize the picture (your dime and nuggets) to actual scale and measure the nuggets. Then I will get nuggets the same size, arrange them exactly like your pic....then weigh them! :icon_thumright:I will need some time though...
Mad scientist!:headbang:
