This 10″ blue plastic gold pan features three different panning surfaces. First, six coarse riffles run along the side for the initial panning effort. Then switch to a set of smaller riffles that to further clean the gold. And finally switch to the textured surface covering the rest of the pan side for the final cleaning effort. This pan does not have a drop center. It has a small hole drilled along the edge so a tether may be tied through for easy carrying.
