A not-so-little nugget to get the fever flowin.
« on: July 23, 2010, 10:08:01 AM »
So, I'm at a rare coin store in Salt Lake City a while back and somehow got on the topic of gold. The store owner comes out with this bad boy and sticks it in my hand. Sucker's gotta way at least 5 pounds and is for sale for the meager price of $70,000.  :o

How'd ya like to find THIS in your next dig.  ;D

True, they are out there, but I just seem to find flakes. But with gold at $1300/oz now, I'm going to have to keep my finds in the safe now.
