Joe. That is a beauty. That wasn't my Mojo. That was your persistance going back several times to that spot where you had gotten skunked before. Fantastic first find. It doesn't look like you dmaged it much. From the looks of it , it was probably ready to break apart anyway. Now you have 2 nuggets. I hope Nathans foot gets better so he can get some detecting in before he has to go home----Bob

Great find for 1st nugget--or for 100th nugget. I'd take one ( or two ) like that anytime. How deep was it??

CONGRATULATIONS JOE!!!! Wow buddy that is just a super way to start your gold collection! And yes, I DO believe some of Montana's hunting spirit transferred with the machine - just a a shaman's blessing would guide the spears of hunters in our ancient past. More big nuggets to you WingNugget! – Terry
