Imaudigger Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Nice find!!Do you suppose it's part of a scattered stash, or native in place? Even back in the gold rush days, you would be extra careful not to lose something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Seeker Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 WOW, very nice Ron, it sure added the cherry on top of the great relics that were found!!I will bet that ya'll will be going back to see if another nuggets turns up!Judging by where in the old mining camp it was found do you think it was dropped by a miner or was a nugget that was never found?

oldies1955 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Man, that is so awsome! Finding cool stuff, finding fat honking gold! and you got it all on video Thanks for sharing. Too funny though...right off a main road and houses just over the hill. If they only knew You guys better go hammer that area before they start laying new foundations for housing developents there. :0Tom H.

Ron (CA) Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Thx everyone!! Appreciate all the comments!I am still pretty jazzed about the find. But in the video I do state we are leaving and going to a new spot. Many of the locals will recognize the burn spot but that is not the site I got the nugget. I am slow, but not so slow that I would post the details of a huge nugget site!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
