I love this I've been hooked on the motherlode since 2018 I drove out from Boston lived in a van for 3 years living off gold , I not only did it but grew and learned so much and I have continued to repeat my Pioneering west and have found large specimen gold 🎉
Way cool. Thanks for sharing
This is the best documentary on modern day digital gold prospecting ever made. II have watched it so many times.
Ed Coogan is a legend in the goldmining world...and there is no better metal detectorist, plus he is a war hero!
I have the pleasure of spending lots of time with Ed and his beautiful wife, Kate. Two of the finest people you will meet. He is 92, now and we were out metal detecting just 2 weeks ago in Mariposa County with more trips planned.
Thank you for this video.

I'd give almost anything to join along some nugget hunting trips with Ed. I'm in Valley Springs, Calaveras County. I would even forfeit any gold found by me if that's what it would take. I do fairly well, I consistently find nuggets. But there is so much nuanced detail you only learn by being mentored by one of the greats, or making the same mistakes. And then, hopefully, you build on top of it. If that knowledge isn't passed on, who will iterate on it if you talk it home to the afterlife making the same mistakes Ed for sure made and I have and absolutely wil too again.
World class prospectors for sure mike and world class movie! My favorite you have ever made! The story’s you told and the amazing things Ed have done wow! Thank you so much for sharing this
Thank you Mike. It was an easy story to tell with Ed's life adventures. Always appreciate the comments and for watching.
hey it megadog
Won my subscription the heart felt presentation only a prospecter knows the feeling
That’s awesome you got to spend some time with Ed, Kay and Johnny. Especially when they took you out in the motherload. That’s even better when Johnny found that piece of gold. I’m sure the ping from the metal detector was quit nice to here. Those are some amazing pieces of gold from Ed’s collection. Wow. Thanks for sharing those. I wish I could buy all them. Another great Vlog from Mike.

Having bought one of Ed’s beautiful pieces from you in the past, this was an awesome video! I know when we spoke, you told me you were going to do a video on Ed down the road. But this video is definitely something else. Thank for sharing some of his story (as well as Johnny’s) with us my friend!!

Wow! A special trip! Thanks for bringing us along! ✨️🐝
Thanks for watching A3!
@The Gold Vlog wish to make a trip out west sometime. Not much time with work and farm. Thanks again ✨️
Watching this makes me wonder why I was a few decades late getting into prospecting, being that I was born and raised in So Cal. Wonderful video commemorating your mentor Ed. Happy Hunting all.
Thank you Ed, I appreciate you watching and I think I'd be out there in the Mother Lode every day if I lived close by. Thanks for watching and for the compliments on the video.
What a cool Job some people have, thank you for all you guys do. 👍👍
Thanks Eric, I appreciate your comment.
Awesome video. Thanks
Thanks for watching.
91 Years young!!! Absolutely amazing!!! Still out there prospecting! Bravo!!! Excellent story and video! Sorry I'm so late to the party my good brother! I have been so incredibly busy. I just haven't had the time to keep up with youtube! But I tell ya what, this was worth every second taken out of my busy schedule!! Oh and yes I did change my youtube handle to JJ prospecting. Some others and myself it is more fitting to what we do. Anytime anyone was trying to search JamminJeff they were coming up with music stuff. I like my music but, it's not my channel is about. Thank you so very much for all you do!!!
Missed seeing this Jeff. Thanks for the reply and I agree JJ Prospecting should help folks find you on CZcams. Looking forward to more content from you. All the very best Jeff, Mike
@@goldnuggetsales I thought maybe you did! I had a major issue arise on the channel from me messin around with stuff that I had no experience with. Lost content, pics and comments, but I'm going to get it fixed. Right now the channel is pretty much blank. That's what I get for messin with it. Maybe it's a sign.🤣🤣Maybe it's tellin me, it's just not time yet. Between medical stuff, medical insurance, and everything else that comes with life after two heart attacks, I barely have time for anything else. I get in front of the puter for some social time and entertainment only by chance. Hell, I have five bags of dirt waiting on me! Anyway, now that I've typed a book, I'll close with, All the Very Best To You As Well My Good Brother, TTYL
That was VERY VERY INCREDIBLE !!!! Thank you !
Glad you enjoyed it Johnson...I appreciate you watching.
Definitely a great video! Some very beautiful pieces!!!
Thanks so much Josh, I appreciate the comment!
Great video really enjoyed nicely done. Just beautiful gold.❤
Thank you lv2mine. I appreciate you watching and leaving a comment.
man that quartz is beautiful with the gold.. its so white, seems like these specimens are special. very nice.
So interesting to watch a Master at work ~ Thanks Mike
Glad you enjoyed it Sweetfolly!
That was a great piece of work. You captured the magic beautifully, even with know sound on the day of shooting. Great job.
Thank you
What a great video and informative speaking. Very well done! Awesome gold from that Harvard Mine! As a CA prospector myself from time to time this was a fun watch! New sub my guy
I absolutely love this video! Ed and Johnny are true blue! There is nothing better than honoring the old timers! I am a firm believer that we stand on the backs of other miners and we should always show them respect and praise. Well done, you did both of these things! 👏 I subscribed so please keep up the great work. ❤Miner Ma
Glad you enjoyed it MinerMaGold! I appreciate the sub...welcome aboard!
Excelent video of gold Mike.
Thanks Marco. I appreciate you watching.
Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching.
@@goldnuggetsales that video was awesome 😎👍
Great video Mike. Wish I'd had the chance to meet Ed when my folks lived near the Harvard mine. Great idea to use a second detector with discrimination to keep from digging iron targets!
Thanks Ken. Ed is a legend and you would have enjoyed his company..he's also a great teacher and always happy to share his knowledge.
That was an awesome adventure and a very well-told story my friend. I had to get out my gold and quartz specimen piece from the Ed & Kay collection. Made me even more proud to own it. LOL a really quality production Mike oh, well done.🤠🐊🇺🇸
Very cool Bayou. I appreciate the comment and Ed and Kay appreciate that you have one of their specimens.
Wow I cant wait to find some!!!
Thanks for watching Simon!
I used to manage an Airbnb and lived near Crystal Falls by Sonora and Twain Harte and i used to find lil nuggets all the time in the creeks up there and near roads where they cut near tree roots if there is quartz and black sand ... theres gold
That's what's up....hope to meet you ed
Good job sir, good lucky
Thank you
I live near Jamestown Ca never knew this mine was here
Nice❤
I'm retired now and was thinking about heading to California mother load to try my luck is there open areas to do what you guys are doing in this film
It's like every video you make, you one up yourself. I mean, this is the best show on TV. It feeds me, and I didn't even know I was that hungry. But I will never be full, but very satisfied. After I watched this, I immediately went and shared your channel with a new prospector. I want him to experience this eye candy.
Wow, thank you WheezingGeezer. This was a great story and Ed, a great friend, so it was an easy story to tell and epic location to tell it at. I appreciate the compliments.
ive been stacking bullion, never prospected, but looks fun
Great video mike would love too visit that mine site ,
I’m sure you have some footage of me when I was out with Tom B looking for a lost mine be good too see that one day my friend. Kind regards Stuart 😊
Hi Stuart, currently working on three videos with Tom B from footage shot last year. I'm, slow going on the videos for sure but they will certainly be good stuff and Tom is so knowledgeable. More to come very soon with these videos.
@@goldnuggetsales Tom is an awesome guy can’t wait I’ll be back this year I’d like too visit coyote creek mine maybe this can be arranged.
Has Ed done any prospecting in the Mojave Desert of California? I live there and am curious to know if theres any good Placer gold to be detected here. I love your videos, they are truly entertaining and informative!
hello. so is the gold in this state combined with the quartz more valuable than the actual gold itself as a decorative piece or do they eventually process it out?
Hi Steve, gold found like this carries a premium as most gold is microscopic dust and only about 2% is found in nuggets or gold and quartz. A piece like this would fetch 1.3 to 1.5 spot price.
I am at a loss for words right now , the only word that keeps running through my mind is.... DREAM COME TRUE.... Thank you Mike for sharing these moments and making me feel Alive for Adventure 🙌👍. Ed is one of our national treasures and still living his dream , Godspeed to him ! Johnny, what can I say , what a beast 😎 , admiration , and a healthy envy 💥👍! Man you put out some good 💩 Mike , please..... KEEP ON KEEPIN ON BROTHER !!!!
✌🌞✝️🇺🇲 Justin M
Many thanks for the nice comments Justin...much appreciated my friend.
Professional, all of it.
Thank you!
Woah.. I know exactly where this exact spot is.. insane… I’ve found 5 lbs since last august just up the road. Don’t wanna blow up the location but the pond on the right when you go to that a spot is filled with great bass
Yep, me too......
@@michaelsouza3582 where are you located? I didn’t intend my comment to be rude at all. I actually make sure that area is untouched.
@@allengomes6967 Turlock and your name sounds familiar.
You can still take gold out of the rivers in California. You just can’t dredge them. There are still rivers like the American river and the Yuba that you can take gold out of legally. But you can pan and you can use a very small sluce. None of it can be mechanical, but you can certainly use a sluce and pan for gold in the rivers in California. As well as metal detect.
Thats how we detected on lake mcClure where they hydrolic mined the grounds so packed hard you have to rake down get the loose very irony rocks out of the way. Ore piles I knew guys in catheys valley who piles ore onto sheets of plywood detecting every single piece since old timers just eye balled every thing and they left a lot of gold behind unseen inside the ore
As someone from this area I've always wanted to look for gold in this area but whats the point if your a law abiding citizen like myself if its indeed "illegal"(?) to prospect California's rivers in the "Mother Lode" area as talked about in this video?
BLM land that is not claimed is fair game - just gotta find those rare areas.
Magical. We all hope we digging at 91. Thank you for the gift. WWG1WGA 3%🇺🇸
if they didnt see anything as gold indicators. leaching out they walked away. and gold is still there.
Minute 10:00
I think I bought a Gold Bug from Ed 30 years ago if he's from Turlock.....
More than likely!
@@goldnuggetsales Was always glad we hunted difference areas, he's good.....
were did he go so i can dig the gold he leftd behind lol you dig all targets iron are not dig them all
Still a lot of gold in California, but to file a claim along with the environmental impact statement can be a nightmare.
I believe it, California is tough on miners now.
No way, 91...
I know, right!
I had a really hard time hearing them talk with the music so loud. That’s kind of annoying.
Fun to watch but not very informative at all.
Nothing worse than etched gold Dipped in acid to dissolve the quartz So unnatural and he did it to all of his gold specimens. Joke
this is great thank you!
