OH MY, WHAT A PAYDAY, "MARIO" SHOWS!

Gulf Hunter

Active member
Went for a solo spin, with the Excal on 11/16, through a 1247P 0.1L (late) and S winds at 5-10. Started the hunt at 230P and "MARIO" showed up almost immediately. He is 14K and 33.2Gs or 1.07 Troy OZs, which ever flavor you like. Personally I like troy ozs. because that is how Midwest deals. Ran the #'s on Dendritics calculator and was STAGGERED by the results, at $491.07(grams)! WHAT A PAYDAY! If I could do that everyday, I'd have a new job, PIRATING! LOL! It will certainly be a significant contribution to my next OZ of .999 gold bar. The last gold ID bracelet I recovered was this month last year, so it was right on time! The rest of the nut was pretty dismal and conditions were less than optimal really. Was some lead showing, but VERY little coin. Who needs clad when gold is around, right? Also recovered 1/2 of a toe-ring, feels like aluminum, but holds silver test acid, so it went in the silver scrap box. Midwest will just send it back, if it's a loser. Total clad count was $.79. Baled at 615P and I had a golden smile! Going to South Padre island tomorrow on an early business trip. Going to do some South Texas pillaging in Silverstar Lawman's territory, as the business does not have to be done, until Tuesday. Got PT in my crosshairs!

Payday is the correct word for that find. Fantastic GH couldn't happen to a more deserving and hard working Pirate. Congrats and hopefully gold will go back up before you turn in your next load. HH.
 
Very nice bro, very nice!

Seems a shame to smelt that puppy down. Are you sure you don't want to just change your name to Mario??? :shrug: :lol:
 
You dont need to find gold everyday with that kind a finds!!!! Beats any finds i've made this season i think.
 
Man I don't know if its good to bring Gulf Hunter down to my neck of the woods, going to be a barren place after he leaves :) Great find
 
Hey Gulf Hunter, That must have brought a smile to your face when Mario surfaced. I know I was smiling just seeing that picture "33.2grams" WOW. :clapping: Now tell us really what ya did when Mario came up in your scoop. I bet you were jumping in the water like a little child with a new boogie board, making splashes in the water that would put a breaching whale to shame. I think Papa-Joe said he saw the splashing clear across the Gulf. :rofl: Way to go, ya #1 Looter :please:
 
:cool:Got to love this hobby GH..Nice Payday mate...You had it coming:clap:

Holidays..You know the drill...Vacations and all...will post some loot soon.....
