First gold nugget.

[Shane]

The new 5000 is already on its way to paying itself off with this little ripper I found today.
My scales are at a mates so I will weigh it later. My guess is around 8 grams?

 

[Nugget]

Great work Shane, hopefully the first of many . My guess would be closer to 3-4 grams? Let us know for sure once you put her on the scales.

looks like a part of a crunchie bar

Maybe optimistic on size. On second thaughts i think under 5 would be more reslistic.?

Congrats on the first nugget , they are always the hardest. Very generous with the size my guess is 1.2g, let us know the final weigh in .

I think DD is closer to the mark. I was thinking lower numbers but gave a little extra for height as it's somewhat difficult to tell from the angle of the pic. None the less a fantastic first find with your new detector.

Shane, you are a gold magnet, you have hit the jackpot with the fabricated round stuff and now you are walking over the natural stuff, unbelievable.

And I thought all you could do in Darwin was fish and drink, you have certainly change my preconceptions of the region.

What a great first nugget.
