Government......Right!! Another place that might be productive would be the school above the courthouse. That's where some kid found a nugget (on the school grounds) right after a rain. I haven't been up there in years, so I don't know if it's fenced in now, or not.
As they say; If you want gold, go where gold has been found. (lol)
I've hunted the school many many times looking for coins and jewelry, not gold and not in the dirt around the school. Interesting is the area above the school. I scouted it out last year and found tons of quartz. Anywhere from shattered fragments to huge boulders. This was before I had my MXT. There is quite a bit of space between the school and the nearest private property fence. I've also heard stories similar, even one in which a young fella got a nugget wedged in his shoe walking down 7th street, practically in front of my house. I need to put my MXT in prospect mode more often around town.
