Wow. Good on him..fantastic find.

Good on him, nice find
A well deserved find after a 10 yrs searching.

Traffic to the GT just increased 10 fold

Awesome find, just noticed it in the paper, lucky bugger whoever it is.

I'm not cynical at all......but they always find these just before a school holiday period(16th Sept) and have a big pic of the detector brand used-hmmmmmmm???
If true-great work.
Jaros :/

well done to the bloke i say, i would be happy with it, hell i would be happy with 1/100th of that

Lucky guy, interestingly enough the conversion to troy oz from 4121 grams is incorrect - the article says 145 ounces which is normal ounces not troy.

aaaggghh
I am sure I was close to that one.
Well done.

And just before next Easter another 'nugget' (same one but photo taken from the opposite side) will be found, just in time for Minelab's package deal promotion.......hmmmm, now whos being cynical? lol

Besides, nice surprise to the lucky finder.

I'm not cynical at all......but cynical comments always seem to crop up out of the woodwork whenever a large find is made. Hmmmmm... Jealousy?
It'ss three weeks till the next holiday period. Think about the percentage of the year that is within a month of a designated holiday (Xmas, Easter, one of the several school holidays), and you end up with a big chunk of the year.

Nice big chunk off the mortgage.

That would pay off my mortgage and fund a new Ranger or Hilux as well

What a ripper nugget

 

[AngerManagement]

That would pay my medical bills and allow me to put a deposit for my Dad's place in the aged care home.

Then I would have time to get out and enjoy a bit of free time...

Am I a bit suss always... As to where it was found ???

But bet your bottom dollar a few MD shops will make a bit in increased sales of gear...
