Title: GOLD!!!! Post by: monkeymad on July 18, 2013, 04:52:17 PM I can't believe my day today everything else aside, I decided on a quick 2hours at a field of mine that produces all sorts. And then bang, I hit gold.
Gotta be worth something ;D ;D I told the farmer and he said well done, thank you for been honest now go spend it or store it for yourself and keep the lot for your honesty. Yay. ;D Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: carling on July 18, 2013, 04:54:11 PM very nice ,,,,or you could send it me? ;D

Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: jaydogg on July 18, 2013, 09:56:24 PM Well done mate. After years detecting I have still yet to find my first gold coin :(
Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: Da Monkey on July 18, 2013, 10:07:16 PM Nice one :-) don't they come out cracking ? Just like the moment that were dropped... lovely.
I can't tell as no scale and to be honest unless they're side by side its almost impossible anyways, but is it a half or full sov ? Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: monkeymad on July 18, 2013, 10:10:15 PM I believe it's a half as its just under 20mm across. Also weighs in at 4g.
So chuffed. Gave such a good signal too. Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: jayhay69 on July 18, 2013, 10:22:57 PM deffo half sov at 4 grams
Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: rjm on July 18, 2013, 10:24:33 PM Gold is always nice. Well done. Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: wet feet again on July 18, 2013, 10:27:51 PM almost same size as hammered penny I will swap if you want !!

Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: hotmill on July 19, 2013, 08:24:27 AM Yeah, keep it mate, some people detect for many years and don't find a gold coin. I would never sell mine, unless I had the baliffs at the door obviously :D

That ctx will be paid for in no time Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: hotmill on July 19, 2013, 10:46:45 AM Niceone monkey That ctx will be paid for in no time Being Gold what sort of visual indication did it give you on the CTX? Was it different to Silver ,copper etc? Title: Re: GOLD!!!! Post by: monkeymad on July 19, 2013, 11:18:18 AM Very different. Rock solid visual I'd and tonal I'd. It doesn't actually look like anything else and couldn't be mistaken for anything else either due to where it is on the scale.
