Thar's GOLD in them thar hills!

Well, I was having kind of a so-so week, but last night as I was cleaning up some finds, I happily discovered that one of my mystery-melts was of the shiny golden variety! It tests at 10K and .74 oz. I'll also post the chunk that I found a while back. This weeks nugget was found with the AT Pro using the 5x8 coil, as the AT Gold is at the Garrett spa getting fixed up. It came in at about 69 VDI. I love my AT's

Do you suppose those are natural or from some sort of smelting process? Either way, really great scores! I think a natural nuggets command a higher dollar right? You are rich!

Thanks, guys.
Mud: I don't know the answer to that. I've looked at lots of photos of gold nuggets, but they seem to come in all shapes and sizes and vary from smooth to rough, depending on whether water has worked them. Anyone know how to tell? As you say, natural specimens command a higher price than spot... anyways, I'm not selling 'em- just like having them in the safe.

Yep - enough to maintain the Tigger in the style to which he's become accustomed for quite a while
