[QUOTE="MegsyB007, post: 508036, member: 13534"] I think they were quite large and rounded at the bottom, back then. I also think people used a lot of things to pan, that weren't actually custom built gold pans. They used anything they could find that would pan gravels. This sounds a bit strange, but an old metal wok would probably work after removing the handle and a bit of aging to it. That's probably more like what you're after in size and shape, if you're trying to recreate one from the 1850's. Cheers, Megsy [/QUOTE]
