Damn thing ain't paid for itself yet. But I did find a nice 1.5 oz Au nugget. Won't say where, though!

where on earth did you get the idea it would pay for itself??? It gets worse... they're like guns... I now own 3 of em - and I feel lucky when I can find enough stuff to buy a new set of batteries.

I love beachcombing in Oregon after a good storm and lots of stuff gets uncovered that may have been there for years and years. I have jars and jars of coins. Haven't found any gold ones, nor nuggets. Have found some jewelry. My wife is the fanatic though :o)
