Chris I have been watching your show for a few years and I'm also signed up as a member. I look forward every week to learn and to enjoy your craft. Thankyou I just wanted you to know you have had an impact on my life and how I carry myself these days. Keep on keeping on
I've been watching your videos for awhile now and I hope you don't stop but I do understand it's your choice but so you know I started prospecting because of some of the things you've said and how it help you get through things in your life so I hope to see more videos long in the future thanks for and your time and effort into making them
Love how you keep re inventing yourself and expanding your skill set, good thing is if you lose your key to the safe, your locking picking skills come into play. Excited to see what you can turn out with all the treasures you find. Silversmithing is a whole new ball game
Thanks Cris , It's always nice to get extra information about the hobby for amateurs such as myself . Great video and thanks for sharing your knowledge .
Gday Chris, Thank you so much for shareing your talent and knowledge. Due to your insperation I have now purchased my first gold Monster 1000. I have had limited sucess with the panning, but watching your videos has really stoked my enthusiasum to learn more. A 1 aussie 👍 🇦🇺
In my country there is pretty much no alluvial or hard rock gold to be found. The refieries pay you (based on spot price) usually 98% of the gold content and 80% of the silver value on average if you have any kind of gold to sell - weather it's jewellery, raw gold or bullion you intend to sell
Good stuff Chris , 30 years ago I wanted to start putting 50 bucks a week into buying gold at the time gold was around 250 an ounce , U.s dollars , I'd say 400 Aussie dollars , my father told me that I'm a dickhead and all the rest of it , you have to buy yourself a car and a house , get the f###en idea out of your head U dumb arse , so it didn't happen because he knew best , it's one thing that I have never forgotten or forgiving him for , but at the end of the day it is what it is now , thanks for your time and effort you put into your content it's always a great watch mate , encouragement goes along way , thanks again Chris cheers mate
I think the key mainly that Chris pulls more gold in every pan than I do in 3 months. Yes your channel has the information to necessitate remedying that. But I'm lazy don't you judge me.
Hiya Chris, Awesome video mate, and that's a really cool idea, I've been watching your videos for a long time, and I don't know how long it's been, but I have seen a lot of changes through the years. Keep doing what your doing, and I hope you have a awesome blessed day mate. Cheers! Cya! 😺🐟 out!
thankyou very much chris, may i ask prospecting ticket do i need one for each state?licence i mean looking to do vic nsw wa nt..thanks for the knowledge you and gades are cool as and fern.
If anyone is thinking of buying gold coin be sure to check the % of pure gold. The United States’ Gold Eagles are 93% pure gold compared to Australia, Canada @ 99.9%. Of course the purity will reflect the cost and the US Eagle does cost a little less than others that weigh the same (I believe that’s correct).
Yes, a gold Eagle does contain the full 1ozt of gold, but it weighs a bit more than 1ozt because it also contains other metals. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, because the silver and copper added to such coins makes them more durable than higher purity coins. However, also be aware of the GST component which is not applicable for the 999+ fine coins like Canadian maples, but is for charged (in Australia) for things like gold eagles, and krugerands because they are not of a purity at least 99.5% So eagles will typically be more expensive, due to GST, while containing the exact same quantity of gold.
@@wedgetailleather didn’t even know it weighed more than oz. oh and I got the % wrong it is 91.67 % gold; 3% silver, balance copper, and weighs 1.09 Troy ounces. Thanks for the info
So if something cost 100 aussi yen how much extra 4 taxes?? Bwahahaha aussi yen bwahahahaha No really tho in the state of Maine in the USA if something cost 1.00 it gonna cost 1.06 due to tax Or is it all built into the price on "sticker"
Generally goods and services are provided in Australia with the relevant GST (Goods and Services Taxes) included in the total price and also shown as a separate item in the invoice for those people who are able to claim the cost of the GST as an input into something that they are providing or making. Depending upon what the item is there may also be other taxes that have to be paid on an item. The GST amount is set at 10%. It's a pain but it did simply a lot of previously ad hoc taxes and tarrifs. Mark from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
So selling your gold privately in cash and declare less gold than you actually find then you can defrauld the tax/VAT inspector??? 😆 🤣 😂 Sorry ... 👍 👍 👍 lol
In Australia it depends on whether you are prospecting as a hobbyist or as a professional. If you a hobbyist then you can find at least $10,000 dollars worth of gold before it becomes a issue with the Australian Tax Office. I forget the exact amount, but suffice to say that you have to be hitting a good paystreak or unearthing sizeable nuggets on a regular basis before it becomes an issue. If you are professional then it becomes like any other business where you have to keep accurate records of your business transactions and record your relevant expenses. Hope this helps you!

@@markfryer9880 Oz is kinda expensive so I think that equates to about £5,000 here, decent I guess. Plus you have more gold there, that helps big time 😆 🤣 😂

GREAT VIDEO. Thank you for sharing the information and footage!
Like the addition of the package reveal. Nice video
Mannnn!!!!! You should make a couple of video's of you turning your own gold in to rings with your own gemstones in it......❤
Great vid. I love Perth Mint gold bars, but nothing beats raw natural gold IMO.

You could consider US Gold Buffalo's. They are .9999 fine I think.
Hey Chris, are you exchanging raw gold for bullion with Perth Mint?
So good!
When you make the choice to sell your gold do you send it straight to the Perth mint ..... How by post or courier ?
Yes, I was wondering the same thing: how do you get the gold to the Perth Mint?
Why can't I find your paydirt on line Chris ?
It would also be good to have gold in case cash becomes worthless some day.
A lot of pay dirt vendors, if not dodgy lol,will give you 24ct spot price, as they will make at least 50% on top of that
You pay extra for paydirt for the time it takes to make it and collect the gold.
Nice Chris , thanks for the info. Wanna buy some gold for your pay dirt?
Sure
I better go get some then@ thanks to you, I have started this journey
What if you are a Goldsmith?
Is it just me who thought he was holding a nug of weed in the thumbnail? 😂
The best way to get gold is to be a central bank. Nice video
🇺🇲💰 options video request. Maybe get some American gold market ideas 💡 just a thought.
Love this video too.
Last time I mentioned ebay my comment disappeared, ummm
I won't sell for -10% I have a few 24c 10 oz. bars
I don't know if I can talk to you personally

Step 1: don’t
So if something cost 100 aussi yen how much extra 4 taxes?? Bwahahaha aussi yen bwahahahaha
