Specimen Gold Nugget 1.15 grams (QR143) For Sale

Another piece from the decomposed gold vein found last summer. The total weight of this piece is 1.15 grams, but it\'s pretty much all gold. There\'s no visible quartz. Another piece that is very crystalline and rough. Good sparkle in the sunshine. About half the pictures were taken inside, about half outside so you can see the difference in color. This piece is from Sierra County, California.
About the pictures. The pictures are taken of all sides so you can see where gold is, and isn\'t. A lot of the pictures have a dime for reference this is to provide you with the actual size of the piece. I try to take pictures both inside and outside because there is a color difference between the two. The best way to describe the color is \"shiny gold.\" The closeups are meant to provide you the detail you need to make a decision. They provide all angles and I always try to show where gold is - and isn\'t. The pictures are not meant to make the piece look bigger than it is, that\'s what the dime is for.
About the gold. The weight provided is for the total piece - the quartz and the gold. This is a specimen piece - not bullion. It is a collectible mineral sample. I provide the total weight of the piece, the weight of the gold will be less than the total weight.
About buying gold. Gold is very valuable. A little bit of gold is worth a lot of money. Currently gold is around $135 a gram. The pieces are shown next to the dime to show actual size. If you are a first time gold buyer please look carefully at the pictures.
