Also wondering if anyone knows how to upload pics from phone

gemstones you might be better off posting something in the Treasure Hunting section of the forum as it is more relevant to what your asking. There might be members who are more likely to read something there that might be able to help rather than here in the metal detecting for gold area?
Good luck with it - sounds like you've made a very nice find.

Hi. I'm the other bloke that Walshie mentioned on his post about last Monday. Seeing as tho him and I only got a little spec each thought I'd try to post a pic of my outing before that just around some old digs. See if I can work it out
Cheers Matt

 

[Mattsgold]

Well that worked so here's one of just the coin. It's a 1834 six pence. Pretty cool find in amongst some little nugs

 

[walshie1000]

Welcome aboard matty. Some nice finds there mate. Can't wait to get out again.

 

[Mattsgold]

Thanks Walshie. Yeah I had a ball even tho we only scored a spec. Hopefully next time we get onto that dream patch

 

[walshie1000]

Yeah me to mate. Was still an awesome day out on the gold. Or not so much on the gold haha.
Fingers crossed Matty, we can only hope!

To find some gold and a 1834 six pence on the same day is a helluva good day out. Good going Matt.

 

[Mattsgold]

Cheers SC75 I thought so too. I like to think some old digger was slogging away and was probably spewing later when he realised he maybe lost his beer money

Haven't posted in a while because works been crazy, so thought I might add a photo from a recent trip. We just spent a week in central qld with a Z and a couple of 2300's.
Really surprised at how easily the Z can keep up with the sdc on tiny gold (though the 14inch coil is harder to pin point with) ended up with 170 nugglets for just over 1.5 ounces. Some nice species in the mix too.

 

[Mattsgold]

Very nice sounds like it was a good week. Some nice bits in there.

Nice work Shingles!
Great effort in a week. Lot if digging there.

Some were sun baking believe it or not.
will post some close ups of the nicer pieces after they get out of the acid bath in a couple of days.

Shingles I must admit I'm a little bit embarrassed to be following your great haul but I've waited three and a half years to be able to post here. This is my first find, very small but a memorable one for me. Full story elsewhere on this forum, under metal Detectors/Minelab/Eureka gold. I just hope I don't have to wait another three and a half years.
Well Done on your finds.

Cheers Bob.

 

[Chewy]

Congrats Bob. Nice bit.

 

[Shingles]

Congrats on your first find bob, what a great nugget. The first one is always the hardest, they should come easier now.
Try not to stare at it too much, they tend to get smaller the more you look at them.

Nice work Bob, i am also hunting for my first peice so know the feeling, i would be extatic with that find mate.
I heard if you put it away for a while its like a fishing story and gets even bigger
