[QUOTE="LC76, post: 337589, member: 3698"] Hard to say but looks like it might be full of fine gold. The story behind the find. Was detecting in what is now a creek but i think its diggings that have eroded away leaving behind the occasional pillar of clay and rock. This particular pillar was a good foot taller that me and i was curious what was on top,so i had to hold the GPZ over my head just reaching the top of this pillar of clay and part mullock. Got a nice target warble and stood back thinking how the hell do i get this target without bringing down the whole pillar on top of me. Managed to reach the spot with the pick and scraped down some of the loose rocks and detected around my feet and there it was. Apologies for weird camera blur...was experimenting with settings. :D [img]http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w499/LDC76/IMG_20170608_145948_1_zpswiyqb3z4.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
