IAMZIM · Aug 13, 2011

Had a great time detecting/panning Yesterday and this morning! Found some gold panning, a seated silver quarter, and some native copper nuggets, one of them being pretty big! I was bummed out i had some mercury in my gold pan.... but at least im finding gold with it!!! :tongue3:

Thanks for looking!!

Awesome pics and awesome finds! Prospecting for gold is on my bucket list.

great bunch of finds and very nice scenery pics. I've always wanted to visit Montana, the postcard pics make it seem pretty amazing

Congrats on that seated quarter and gold finds! The other relics are cool and that V nickel is nothing to sneeze at! Good stuff!

Great Finds and super pictures!

Looks like a great time to me. That mercury looks like it is amalgam - mostly gold or possibly copper as it sticks good to that too. Look in gold prospecting sections for how to clean it off. Nuggy

I've never seen such angular amalgam before. It might be mostly gold with a thin mercury covering. Good luck!

Sweet finds, curious to the large copper disc, any chance of a voyeuristic closeup?

Now wait a minute! You didn't even mention the two creepy little girl coins giving me the evil eye :-[

What the H are they?

Really nice Best Out West flour token. I have searched some of the old silos and never seen one of those. Nice going.

Yeah, its REALLY worn and i cant seem to get a good pic of it... ill try and have my mom take a pic if i can, she gets closeups of flowers and stuff..so maybe she can help me out. It had writing all over it, but it is so worn i can only make out R. E. Stallard on it, and a strange building on the frount. More later on it if i can!
