Heya everyone;
I received my Nokta FORs Gold Pro Package last week but thanks to a nasty cold I didn't do the unboxing until yesterday.
I wanted to be able to speak clearly in my video which is why I waited, I also resisted the urge to open it up beforehand. :)
My video is an unboxing video...
Hello readers, I have done my share of bs jobs in the past, wouldn't it be an adventure to work on a mine full time? Gold mining isn't easy..I have taken many people out with me on my small day trips..and after an hour of digging they wish they didn't come! I on the other hand love being...
Well everyone, we had a blast during the summer mining season of 2014, I see most of you from the western states are doing well! Keep in mind I live in Ohio where it is slim pickings here :BangHead: But we do what we love and that is what matters most! I know I will keep producing videos as long...
Ran across this review of an el-cheapo metal detector from Harbor Freight (yes, I know they're crap. It's the review that's funny as hell!)
This is my review of the 9 function metal detector I purchased at my favorite store!
My son and I recently went to Harbor Freight. I wanted to buy the 9...
Heya everyone;
So I wanted to start a thread talking about the Keswick area west of Redding California and the immediate surrounding area's.
If you know this area or have heard stories then post them up! :)
You do not have to give exact locations but rough/general locations would be nice.
Ok...
Not much gold but it's real. There are no markings on it but it looked real so I acid tested it and it's 10k. I don't think the stone is real but I don't know anything about stones. It just seems too perfectly clear to be real, I will get it checked eventually. I found this at the same park...

Good Afternoon to all! I'm knew to prospecting/rockhounding and need some help with identification. I have an area that I started digging recently because it was sinking in and a crack on the surface of the ground started to form. I continued to dig because I came across soil that was not the...

I found these to be gold today but I dug them up months ago. Now that I have an acid testing kit I'm testing my questionable junk jewelry. Today I found a pair of earrings to be 10k! They aren't marked so I never knew for sure. I found them both at a park about 4 feet away from each other. 2...
Hi, ive never done gold finding before and was wandering how common gold really is.
If I sluice and pan in any old good looking stream in any part of the world but at the right places with bedrock sticking up and know where is most likely to have caught gold, will i find some eventually? or...

Hi everyone,
My grandmother passed away last week and as I was going through her jewelry, I found this pin. I think the cTo on the back means O.C Tanner but I could be wrong. Where is this pin from and what does it mean?
Thanks for the help.

Heya Everyone;
The ol' swimming hole did it again!
Two days ago I found a 14k White and Yellow gold men's Wedding ring!
It comes in at 5.5 grams and polished up oh so nicely. :)
This is my first precious metal ring find, I have found others but not worth anything.
Just a few feet away is...
Do you think the round rocks mixed in with the very promising looking rusty rock was put there by the river of by the glacier.. If
it was by the river it looks like very promising placer material.. If by the glacier then it might just be glaciel till... What do you think?

Heya everyone;
So I am having a problem with my Gold Bug II, she is 2 years old and very lightly used.
Whelp a couple days ago I noticed that the sheathing around the cable to the 10" elliptical coil was tacky, and then I noticed a split in the sheathing right at the box.
I used my detector...

As the title suggests, I'm very interested in searching based on some legends in the Dallas area. The two main ones I have in mind now are gold / cache related - one is at California Crossing (Irving, technically), and the other is just on the Dallas/Tarrant County border, just west of Cedar...

Driving home from my day at the beach (looking for treasures), and found this large canvas painting on the side of the road. It's signed but I don't know if it's worth anything. What do y'all think?
This is a quick story about a visit last year to a new claim in Northern BC. I had researched the area and was able to acquire a claim on a tributary to one of the main gold creeks in the area. The tributary had some history and it looked really nice on the topo map and Google Earth. Access...
Another garbage dump has released its treasure to me, (bare in mind it took me several smelly hours of rummaging to amass all of this treasure into one place). Everything you see below was the result of painstaking sorting of garbage from over 15 bags of junk and filth. Was it worth it? Heck...

Aloha everyone,
I'm researching doing a few Yamashita treasure hunts for a story on the island of Luzon. I am not actually interested in finding treasure for myself, but for your story. Your families history in the Philippines, the signs, maps, stories, past hunts, adventures.
