Best way to find gold nuggets.

Post by wheelchairman36 »

I've never bothered with the coins in 15 but now interested in finding the nuggets in 17 on Canadian national v5 but wondered how besides walking the whole map.

Found 89 so far. Seen that after 10 they show on the map but I have 1 That isn't where it says. It is by field 15 NW area of the field. I even mowed the grass and can't find anywhere in that area. There are no buildings in the area either

If your on GCV some of them are on buildings and there are a couple on top of the train bridges. If there's any kind of a structure around you may have to get creative.

Go until your position location is right on top of the nugget icon. then start looking around. it looks like there is still grass there so it might be under the grass clipping.

Fire up the giants editor and look to see where the nugget is at that location using the editor. It could be the map author incorrectly placed the nugget below the surface layer. Also look up it might be that the nugget is floating in the air.

I have also enabled flight mode before and that sometimes gives you a better perspective to see the nugget than being on ground level.

Can you upload that pic via the Giants Image Server? Your link asks me to download some software in order to view the pic...
