We found this BSA Sprocket while we were out looking at old mineshafts today. From the research that I have done so far it looks to be a BSA 24 Skiptooth Sprocket of about 1940/50's vintage.

Couldn't find the rest of the bike, could be down a shaft anywhere out here in the middle of WA. :lol:

This daylight savings and cool evenings are awesome. Picked up another 4 bits tonight. One of which is absolutely beautiful. Was around a foot down but didnt even use the scoop It was that bright I saw it straight away. Put a pretty big smile on my face

Very nice! That last pic kind of looks like a duck's head eating out of a hand... :Y:

 

[Nothing Great]

You're right it does. Well spotted mate.

Pudd in hand

 

[Krugerrand]

Absolutely stoked today!!!!

Managed to get a great nugget, was really deep (20cm) and just a faint noise. Slowed down a bit and seemed to pay off. When was digging it out had a horrible feeling it would be a rusty nail as I seem to get a lot of them and this sounded the same.
It weighed 2.9 gram and the little one was .1
3 grams in a day

 

[Magilla]

Nice nugget mate, that will get you back out in a hurry.

 

[Jaros]

Yes, that's the stuff we want to see. :goldnugget:

[Mackka]

Couple of little fellas for the arvo.

2 best things in the world. Gold and working dogs ?

 

[Bush n Beach]

Nice piece of gold Krugerrand. I would be stoked to find that too. Even a couple of pieces that you found Nothing Great would make me happy.

Greetings Walshie1000. Is your working dog the digger with a nice bone as an incentive to dig? And of course he dug up all the specimens in front of him. layful:
A beautiful looking dog btw. Looks like he has a nice temperament but also a good bodyguard and companion. :Y:

Happy Prospecting

lol Walshie talk about making us city prospectors feel inadequate nice finds and very cute growler.

Nothing like some guerilla advertising though, free gold layful:

Whats the split on the nuggets, all found with the 7000 or some gpx/sdc finds in there too?

 

[MegsyB007]

That dog is absolutely gorgeous! The gold's not bad either...

 

[Nothing Great]

Spent a few hours at maryborough checking out some different spots with Patrick (cheers for the catch up mate)
Had no luck this morning but managed to pick up 5 bits later on.

 

[Lesgold]

Hey Nothing Great, can you do us a favour. Id like to come to Victoria and detect a bit next autumn. Never swung a detector there in anger yet. If you keep going as you have been, it wont be called the golden triangle any more, itll be called the dirt triangle. Crikey mate, leave a few bits for the mere mortals. Well done. You have that 5 tuned in nicely to your ears.

Cheers

Les
