Welcome to Gold Pan Dan – Where Real Paydirt Meets Real Gold
I’m Dan — just a guy with a shovel, a gold pan, and a deep respect for the land. I started Gold Pan Dan to bring real-deal paydirt straight from gold-rich American soil to folks who love the hunt as much as I do.
Right now, most of our dirt comes from my private claim near Rich Hill in Yavapai County, Arizona — one of the most gold-packed
I’m Dan — just a guy with a shovel, a gold pan, and a deep respect for the land. I started Gold Pan Dan to bring real-deal paydirt straight from gold-rich American soil to folks who love the hunt as much as I do.
Right now, most of our dirt comes from my private claim near Rich Hill in Yavapai County, Arizona — one of the most gold-packed spots in the West. I dig it myself, run it through the drywasher, and bag it up just like I’d want it if I were panning at home. No fillers. No salt jobs. Just honest paydirt with real gold — the kind that puts a grin on your face when it hits the bottom of your pan.
We offer bags with guaranteed gold — for those who want a sure thing — and a lower-cost “wild card” bag with no guaranteed amount for the folks who live for the mystery.
I’m a veteran, a prospector, and a believer in doing things right. Whether you're new to gold panning or just looking for your next score, you’re in the right place.
Dig in, pan hard, and strike gold.
— Dan
