Here is the nugget I found with the new/used GPX 4500.

I hope to find more when the weather cools off. 109 Degrees day of find!

Awesome find! Here are some of mine. The flat one on the upper left is the first one I ever found with my GMII. I found it on a GPAA claim near Wickenburg. It was a small gulley leading down to the main wash and all of a sudden was a small flat area (trap) and sure enough, I got a signal. I could not believe my eyes!
A thunderstorm was getting close otherwise I would have stayed longer. I want to get back soon. I have the White's GMT now but would love a Minelab someday :]

Awesome! I want to get back out there. I'm in So. Cal so it's not too far. There are a few places out here in the desert.

That's a nice little nugget Yuma looks like it's over a gram, most of my friends are using the 4500 not a bad detector, I'm using the 5000 it has a few more options and it's wicked on the small stuff.
Good to see your stash again Dave gives me itchy feet LOL but it's going to be an other year before I hit the goldfields as I'm still recovering, thanks Yuma for posting your nugget between you ,Ralph , Dave and myself we seem to be the only ones posting nugget so I hope to see you post more good luck on your next hunt.

don't forget to
swing low and
slow and
be safe

The nugget was actually just a hair over 2 grams.

I hope with the new detector I can if not find bigger at least find more.

I feel like I got lucky on this one. I will definitely be out trying though.
