I was doing some yard work about a year ago and found what looked like a fossil to me and having always loved different rocks & minerals I brought it in the house. Doing some more yard work I began to notice there was A LOT of rocks in this yard. I can dig down 3 feet or so and have river rocks start filling my hole back up with little to no dirt. I started looking at some of these and I could see gold & pyrite, silver, gray to dark gray to metals in a lot of them. Now I am landscaping and breaking rocks. I picked up the old fossil & noticed gold & silver color in it so I decided to break it open and this is what I found. The nugget weighs 97.7 gr's & I tried your torch test. 20 minutes later & the tip of the nugget wasnt even red yet. I let it cool down & it looked like it had never seen a torch. I have a couple magnets that will really pinch your fingers & it just barely stuck to it. The complete piece weighs 1.74lbs. I washed it off after breaking it out of it's casing and glued it back together for the pictures. 0211030255a.jpg0216030026.jpg0216030025.jpg0211030242a.jpgI have never seen anything like it in 50 years and was hoping someone on here could just verify what I think I have found. Thank you very much in advance, I can't wait to read your answers. T.
 

would you people please let this thread die? he's never coming back to tell us what it was. It was probably a hoax. Don't make me keep looking to see if there's an answer. for the love of that fiat abarth tv commercial model, let it die!!!!!


Jeff, if he/she did come back and make a post, would you believe anything he said? I wouldn't, even if it were authorized by the Pope. If he said had been sick/hospitalized for the past X weeks or without a computer, I'd still look at it with one eye closed.

Enjoy the ride :) Breezie

The truth is I never thought it was a hoax. I just couldnt understand how he kept saying the nugget was hidden until he broke it open but it doesnt look like it was ever hidden in the picture. I am still willing to give the benefit of the doubt however he/she should have updated by now and the $10,000 donation in exchange for testing sounds a bit far fetched.

AUSeeker, I'm reporting you for child abuse! :laughing7: Just as Paul Masson said, 'we sell no wine before its time,' the same holds true for this popcorn. As you can see it's almost ready to pick.

What was the question? I left Mother popcorn in Korea with the yellow giant from Colorado?20130222_112827.jpg20130306_154937.jpg20130309_195520.jpg HH Boris Whom melted the aluminum? Tom Tew did it! Whilst Wm. Kidd was searching for him in Madagascar{St. Maries} then he returned to Newport and saw the Greene family and hid his men. Governor Bellemont was concerned about this, and my 11th greatgrandfather. A Lt. Jonathan Delano 1647-1720 who was at Kidd's trial in Boston in 1700. My question is why they would hang an innocent man twice? King William knew the answer as he gave him a "letter of Marque".:metaldetector: Wm. K called this Island"Dead Man's island",:skullflag: and found it using a horseshoe shaped Island to come here[Nantucket]?:4leafclover: Note of Epilog, The baby ducks have hatched!
