The real way is to get the saddle from the girl in rock ridge the trade the saddle to the guy in the trade place in dusty gulch and get a gold pan, then you go to the casino in dos cactos and beat the slap jack guy, get a map, go to the place on the map and pan for gold.
You need to win Slap Jack at the casino (around the shooting place) then go to the Ranch and get the lasso to get the calf. Leave the Ranch and follow the tracks to the calf press spacebar to capture it take it the the ranch west of the one you were just at then go back to the other Ranch (sorry it's confusing I forgot the names). Get the saddle the go to the main place and trade the saddle with a gold panner. go out and find the extra star to the right of the map. Then pan for gold :)
it depends on which island your talking about
nabooti- it is in the third palm tree on the deserted island
wild west you have to beat slap jack guy and he gives you a map of where it is. then get the gold pan from the trade and barter guy and go to the new place on your map and just pan for it
To do this you needed to trade the saddle for the gold pan earlier in the game.You will come across a stream with a gold star in it while riding your horse.Stop there and get off your horse.Scoop up some dirt and shake out the exess rocks and dirt until you find a gold nugget without shaking it out.
Its in one of the palm trees in Kaya Forest. if you hop up on one of the little huts you should see it.
you trade a saddle for a gold pan and then go to the spot were the rivers merge into one then you go to the star and start diggin for gold but go to sparkles it will help
You win at slapjack and get a map to gold spot. You trade the old saddle that you got from the girl at the trading post for a gold pan.
You go to the two lakes that merge with the star on them on the map go there get your gold pan and pan for gold with it to get the gold nugget. :)
this might take a while but when you see a sparkle click on it even if the pan covers it. you have to be good on timing.
spend it on a bottle earls tonics
The gold nugget in the Kaya Forests is for trading with the guy that accepts gold or money. The gold nugget in Wild West island is for getting medicine from the medicine guy.
you half to get a gold pan.
you trade a old saddle for a pan go to the stream and when you see gold click where the gold is
you get the gold nugget then you go to rock ridge and you give the guy with the horse
how can you find gold in wild-west island on poptropica.
if you have the gold nugget your supposed to get in a secret location, go to Rock Ridge and there will be a man selling a drink to another man. give him your gold nugget, and you'll get more than an invisibility drink... :)
Find a sparkle on a rock (top or bottom) and scoop the pan right on top of the sparkle. Shake the pan carefully and there may be a gold nugget. This worked for me but idk bout you. Hope you find it :-)
go to movie island as a girl
You have to give it to R.J. Earls in Rock Ridge.
you buy it from R.J earl in Rocky ridge with the gold nugget.
you have to win slap jack to get a map to the gold then you have to trade a old sattel for a pan or something
