GeoJack Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 (edited) Northern California Man Discovers Massive Gold Nugget on Easter Sunday.A lucky metal detectorist is feeling really good this week after finding a gold nugget of a lifetime. The undisclosed person struck a strong signal with his metal detector and hoisted a back breaking nugget from the earth. Estimated to be worth over $300,000 and could fetch more at auction.

nugget108 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Just $300,000? Might want to find a good auction house haha. The estimate seems a little low to me. That would be a nice chunk for sure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
