I wasn't going to make a post but after doing some cleaning I just had to.
I found these two pieces about two feet away from each other not to long ago.
The smaller one will stay the way it came after a little wash with water.
The bigger one has had some attention from acid.
Claydiggins and my claim partners know more of the story.
Not gonna share that here . But I know several members on a relatively personal level that will want to see these.

Found with my GB pro

Can I like more than once?? Thanks for sharing
 

My heart be still...there are siblings out there waiting to be reunited...Good Luck and Congratulations!!
 

I have been looking for something like what you found for a number of years, and only find some fines. You hit it out of the park with those.

just keep beepin' they're still out there.
 

Very nice! Looking forward to one day finding some of my own. Really like the gold in quartz look!
 

Gorgeous!

Nicely done, and all the best,

Lanny
 

nice specimens. you're no going to hydrofluoric them? please, nooooooooo.....!

already did the big one. I could tell there was more gold to be seen. Just two days some scrubbing and a water pic shes's done now and looks much better. it will sell for more that way.

The small one was just washed with water it was covered with clay.
 

Jackpot!!! Well done sir. I would vote banner but we all know Gold prospectors forum gets no love. Now if that were a penny with a special mint mark you might have a winner lol

Shines up nice with that fish oil!
 

NICE, atta boy. I have cleaned many such specimens, excited low level acids are effective. Buy a yard sale crockpot, one with a high low switch, and excite murtatic, turns to sulphuric acid, will do wonders. Nitric if available. Full potency hydrogen peroxide is effective, hard to find. Hydraflouric is deadly and unless proper breathing and saftery equip, and protocol is followed, can kill you. Awesome pieces, awesome work, keep it up. PS I am not a chemist, or and expert other than personal experience, am barely qualified to comment. Make sure you research these chemical indepentantly
