The weight is 20.52 grams.



Congratulations to the winner, Tuolumne Todd! PM me with your mailing address.

The second closest guess was Got 4by4, who guessed 20.15 grams.

This was fun for me, and I hope it was fun for YOU! :occasion14:



What a cool contest, if terry will do this again next season I would like to donate some placer gold from my claim for next years contest, if other claim owners donate a little color then the winner next year can take home gold from all over the country. TNET rocks, thanks Terry
 

I demand an immediate recount and reweigh -- The original picture shows 24 pieces and I see 25 on the scale :tongue3:
 

I think there was a hanging chad on one of those nuggets. Anyway next year. Thanks Terry for providing entertainment during the cabin fever months.
 

22.7grams.....come daddy needs a new detector :laughing7:.............wow missed that contest hahaha

Wait a minute....... My best guess was 7.44 plus I was the 14.0 post and that added together equals 21.44. Minus the weight of the gold (20.52)comes to a difference of 0.092 grams ! That makes me the winner !
Thank Terry for the entertainment !
BTW I always flip rock because I find some goodies under them once in a while!!!
HH and Merry Christmas to all !
 

Wow! I was way off! That was fun! Thanks Terry!
 

so much for prevailing wind...:dontknow:
 

it's always the new guy that's lucky, when I take my brother or neighbor out to the claim wouldn't you know it
I get skunked cant find a flake, they come up with big o' chunks, never underestimate "beginners luck"
 

yep this was a nice little present from Terry and it looks like everyone had a good time with it because of the 13 pages of interest it generated! Thankyou Terry!
