Seriously? Hard to believe. That would be tempting to take that to court and have it overturned.

I'm with @pepperj & his finger salute. I'm going to take pepperj's advice. 😉😉

Awesome gold for no more time than you were digging. Wow!
I'm just wondering why your using a highbanker and not a sluice. Looks like there's plenty of water?

Not enough water flow.

I wish I could pan in my back yard. I've found gold flakes (not fools gold) in my brook, unfortunately in 1776 NYS made it a law if you find "gold" or"silver" on your property, you have to turn it in to the state. One would think if you own the land, it's yours? Nope, not in NYS! I was born & raised in California & love going home to mine with my brothers every year. Congratulations to you!!

If you pan on your OWN property and find any gold, New York State says it is theirs? Do they pay your property taxes for you? Could it be NY is worst then Calif.? Wow...

How would anyone know if your getting gold OR what your doing on your own property unless you tell them OR make it obvious what your doing !? Do "they" give you a time line on when you need to tell them you've found gold , I.E. 1 year 10 years or . ??

Yes I certainly do pay my taxes & yes again, NY is far worse than Cali! 😆

All it would take is lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$ and hope you find a good enough lawyer!
