But in 1980, along with mining partner Sid Walker, Hatadis hit a small mother-lode with a Keene gold dredge along the North Fork of the Yuba River in eastern Sacramento Valley, California.

My husband and I always brought our watches down there for repair or to have new battery put in. My husband has a New Orleans Saints watch it's very sentimental to him and he's taking that watch three times now to have the battery changed. Will I took it in this morning and the owner was not able to remove the back of the watch keep in mind that he was the one that tightened it the last time we were in there and now he said nothing he can do. He told me that he's got $2,000 worth of work that he has to do on other watches that he didn't have time for mine. How awful that is to treat your customers

Brought some melted down jewelry to these people and they said it wasn't good and wouldn't even test it . The lady that didn't even really help us was a rude bi*"h

I had a beautiful opal gem and they made me a wonderful gold ring setting for it from scratch. They involve me the whole time with the wax mold to approve and then the final product was exactly what I wanted and I love it! I’ll be able to pass it down to my daughter!

We're lucky to have such a nice jewelry store in Placerville. I initially stopped in to see what they had, with the intention go purchasing from a bigger store in a bigger city. But after spending a few minutes with the owner, I was delighted to discover that they not only had very nice merchandise (high quality & beautiful), the prices were also reasonable. And my wife loves it! So I've continued buying her gifts there, and they never disappoint.

Bought many peices of the estate rings, and a beautiful 2mm box chain. Love them all! Had to have the rings sized, they did in shop and was able to wear the same day. I love that as no one wants to wait to wear a new ring.

This is my favorite jewelry store period. They have the best prices and best jewelry pieces I have ever seen. I am an avid jewelry collector and have been to jewelry stores all over the country and ancient gold is by far one of my favorite places to go. Jim and Justin are very knowledgeable and are a pleasure to do business with.
