Locating a small Arizona gold nugget with the Minelab GPX5000 metal detector

Here in this short video a partner located a small gold nugget that gave a strange signal once the nugget was out of the ground. Don't put too much faith in signal response. I recommend you dig everything, if possible.

Rob, How good is the minelab X 70? Is it better then the lobo supertraq? I was thinking of buying a eureka gold or the 705 gold pack. Since you know a bunch about minelabs. Is the eureka gold better than the X 70 or the X 705 gold pack.

Thanks a bunch for the great videos. Brad

@bradmoore8 Hey Brad, Both the X-Terra 705 and Eureka Gold are great detectors for under $1000.00. The X-Terra is a multi-purpose detector, so you can hunt for coins, relics, gold nuggets and even the beaches with this unit. The Eureka Gold is a pure VLF gold hunting detector. If you plan on doing any type of coin/relic hunting, I might lean towards the X-705 Gold Edition for $698.95. If you're strickly hunting for nuggets, you might consider the Eureka Gold. Get back with me.

Hello, hello, hello....I'm thinking you may want to look at 80-year-old Forrest Fenn's YouTube video about an antique bronze box (filled with f eagles, double eagles and nuggets) that he's hidden in the mountains north of Santa Fe, NM. Clues for finding the treasure are in his memoir, The Thrill of the Chase. Proceeds from the sale of the book go to help cancer patients who can't afford their treatments.

any good place to get a 2nd hand one for less than half the price either through you or elsewhere? I just can't afford the full price man. If you can help that would be great and if not Thanks just the same!
