Another detector added to the tool kit. GPX 6000 on the left. We will see how it stacks up against the Axiom. I expect each will have areas where they outperform the other.

Big shout out to my good friend for helping me get this detector. If you are even thinking about ordering prospecting equipment then give him a shout and see what he can do for you. Seriously!

Two amazing gold in quartz specimens found while metal detecting for gold nuggets in Northern California. And yes, this is exactly how they looked when I found them, aside from washing off the dirt and some rust.

Found this gold nugget in some cemented gravels. There's something special about digging a target and just knowing that's it's going to be gold. It must be gold fever 🤒😂⛏️🌟

Found a nice piece of gold in a place that has been absolutely hammered by metal detectors over the years. Not bad for a quick morning of detecting before the rain.
