This thread has nothing to do with either subject. Falls under the classification of "prospecting". verb (used with object) to search or explore (a region), as for gold or other precious metals.

Admin nuggethunting Posted March 25, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hey Guys and Gals, Could you imagine finding something like that though? Just imagine detecting in the mountains and seeing about 100 gold bars lying on the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMPDLN Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 We had a treasury truck full of newly minted coins turn over up in my area a few years ago. Scattered coin all over the shoulder. You couldn't get close to it until the treasury dept. removed all the still salvageable coins from the wreckage. There is likely hundreds if not thousands of loose coin still out there. However the danger of trying to recover any of it around that dangerous curve would certainly out weigh the reward. If that would have been gold instead of coins, that would certainly be a different story.....and I would have beat you all to it, lol.
