Relichunter2 Posted August 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Okey so the story goes like this....I am hunting a good friends property and our agreement is what we find we keep. As usual when we find a piece we share the area and try to find more to see if its a patch or a random one just hanging on it's own, and so we both have a chance to get a nugg by the end of the day....we usually hunt in eyes view of each other...but I got kinda bored digging trash and have not hit on a good target all morning. So I moved over to Jacks area, an area he all ready searched. In the first 5 minutes i get this strong signal..thinking okey another piece or iron garbage, just 6 inches from the surface this little piece comes out....small but a beauty of a specimen...well ole Jack was not to happy he missed it....I sensed a little frustration with himself...and I am like dang ! sorry Bro.. ...ain't she sweet !! It does look like a locust.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted August 17, 2014 Admin Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Hey Relichunter, Great museum quality piece of gold you found there. Ya, that sucks when someone misses a nice piece, but we all do. I walked over some nice pieces over the years and someone dug them. No doubt I was frustrated, but it's made me become more aware of what I could be walking away from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relichunter2 Posted August 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Shep ...hope all is good with fire and all..I just missed it..was in Fish Camp for the morning. Yes well there were times the story went the other way...where I missed it and partner found it....but that's the way the cookie crumbles... Thanks Roo....yes....this one weighs around 2 grams...but I just love its shape and pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
