The find of a lifetime for me and on my birthday to boot. Me and Ron Swenson Ron(CA) were out detecting an old site where I have found quite a few small nuggets a couple years ago and this was a huge surprise as I never expected gold to come in as a high conductor. This sounded and ID'd just like a silver coin would. I am lucky that I live in such a great place to detect, here in California's gold country. Every once in a while one of us comes across a big nugget like this while out detecting. The 49'rs didn't have detectors and where they didn't dig, there is still the possibility of coming across one of these ![thumbsup :thumbsup: :thumbsup:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
This live dig was caught on video . . . .
I know we say "Dude" alot but, Dude, we're from California!!
Thanks for looking!! Best birthday ever :-D
EDIT: 07-07-2014 - Several have asked me if this nugget is for sale, I am looking at all offers. Thanks!!
