Description

Vintage Gold Miners 14 1/2” Metal Pan Prospectors Pan Tool Sluice
This antique gold mining pan must have stories to tell!
The pan measures approximately 14 1/2” in diameter and it is about 2 1/4” tall.
The bottom center has an approximate 8”
diameter.
The pan is in nice, old condition.
It is very slightly warped….imagine it getting shoved into a saddle bag!
It is scratched…..which would happened scooping it into the sand and rocks in a river.
It has rust…most likely from years of interaction with sand, rocks, and water.
It has a beautiful patina from years and years of life!
Please see pictures for the best description and condition.
Please free to ask questions.
This was gifted to me from a couple from California almost 50 years ago.
I have no other history of it and the pan has no other markings to help tell its story.
Oh, but the stories it might tell if it could!
