I sure will Harry.....just as soon as I remember where I put my little Walmart special web cam - put up someplace right after I took a pic of that 10+ gram nugget, and I think that might have been a couple of years ago.....but I'll find it, and get the jar, and some of the larger nuggets photographed. You want them (photos) posted here in this thread, or you want me to send them as attachments to an email direct to you? And, for the record, I picked up another two grams of the +6 nuggets today. For a buyer, its a good time to add to your stash because its staying down around $1250.00. May take awhile longer, but I believe it will begin to climb upward again. At least I'm hoping it does. I've been adding a little here, and a little there for the past nine years, so I think its safe to say I'm in it for the long haul. |

Yes please Ralph post them here if you can just to keep the thread interesting,and yes gold is having a breather at the moment so buy what you can because it will push up in the new year,so add as much as you like please mate.
I'm taking a new chum out this Christmas for his first time so where going to prospect a little place called Tuena (in my state of N.S.W. about 3 1/2 to 4 hours away from Sydney),been some nice gold retrieved from there in the past,Steve has an underwater Minelab detector called an Excalibur so he's going to wade the streams,I'll also show him the ropes on the Minelab GPX 4500 and the GPX 5000.
I'll leave it there Ralph until next time mate
don't forget to swing
low and slow
and be
safe
happy
hunting

Harry..... well, dang it! I found the webcam, but It seems I've thrown the disk away that's needed to install it, so now I have a camera that I can't use (as far as I know, it can't) but not to worry, I'll pick up something after the first - either a camera, or a new webcam, and get some pictures posted.....said I would do it, so it'll get done. Have patience with a forgetful old man! :)

Gonna get some kind of camera today - made myself a note so I won't forget.  Once I get the camera, I'll have to stop by the bank, get the jar out of my box, and bring it home.....not only to take the pics, but to add my new additions. Its filling up slowly but surely Picked up a few more of the +6 nuggets - fourteen grams so far this month (approx 573 grams/T) - got my eye on a couple more auctions that will be ending within the next week, so I may be adding a little more. As we've discussed before, for a buyer that's in it for the long haul, its a good time to add to your holdings. |

Got a cheap camera yesterday, and I'm trying to figure it out (my first digital camera). Until I do, this one picture will have to do. If you go back through the posts, you can get an idea of how much I had a couple years back, and what I have today. Harry, when I figure out what I'm doing with this dinky little camera, I'll try to get some shots of some of the bigger nuggets.....little thing isn't any bigger than one of those ipod nano things (I can hide it behind two of my fingers) but it was the cheapest one I could find, and, since I'll not be using it all that much, I didn't want to pay a small fortune for one (old tightwad)!  |

A very big thanks for that Ralph as it will keep the thread interesting and you never know I might add some nuggets of my own after Christmas. And yes that jar of yours look almost full now almost time to start on a new one  . As for your camera also a big thank you and the first photo looks like the camera's doing the job. cheers mate |

Harry - not a real good picture, but I'm still trying to figure the ins and outs of this little camera.....just a sampling of some random selected nuggets in the jar. Cool, huh?  |

The two pictures I posted will have to do for right now - cheap little camera proved to be cheap indeed - quit working after about a half dozen attempts - taking it back to the store, and getting my money back - a prime example of the old saying "you get what you pay for"
