Hi everyone a quick note to say thanks for all the nice comments and encouragement I have received over the last 10 months since I have been on the forum. We are now packed and ready for the move back across the ditch having been made redundant at the end of September. Since the "gold" chain...

Hi Goldpick Further about the "jeweller" it was not a 'jeweller' as such but the head sales assistant of a jewellery retail store who couldn't confirm and advised me to get further confirmation. She also viewed the area where the gold mark is supposed to be and could not confirm, as no mark...

Hi Goldpick I cannot find any hallmarks on either end of this chain. As said before there is no clasp. The reading on my Gold Bug Pro is 64 - 65 the same as my wifes gold rings. I took it to the local jeweller who also couldn't confirm the material. I am going to Sydney (city) later in the week...

Hi Paulmarr, Sa_bogan and Sandta Thanks for the comments There is no clasp on this chain , possibly the reason it was lost. Its too heavy for aluminium and is not attracted to a magnet Originally I thought it might be just steel plated gold. Will get it checked out Cheers Misty

Thanks again TTKooAu for identifying the Coin Interesting Cheers

Thanks TTKooAu I will get it checked and report back Cheers Misty

Thanks Goldtarget I will get an assessment on the chain and let you know Cheers Misty

Sunday 19 Oct finds at the local river beach A few coins and 2 ear studs The sparkly one probably a Zircon but the knotted design certainly feels heavy enough to be silver and a couple of junk bangles The little coil Gold Bug pro starting to sing for me now Cheers Misty

Thanks for the kind words TTKooAu and Metamorphic Headsup I know we can use dredges over there on private claims I am not sure on large trommel type recovery We certainly wont be able to use a trommel in our creek its too steep but a small portable dredge would be in the rock pools below...

;) e Fathers Day Gold in New Zealand Hi Guys I jumped the ditch on Friday 5th to crash my granddaughters first birthday and to check on the gold claim that my son his mate and my self are hoping to obtain soon. Instead of the usual fishing trip we usually have on fathers day we decided...
