Good morning all. This was my grandfathers early 20th century Gold nugget stick pin. The weight is 3.8G is there any added value for it being a vintage stick pin. Thank you.

A decent salesperson can make the fact it is vintage an added value and a potential buyer that is interested in vintage stick pins already has that idea in mind when shopping for said item(s).
Raw gold specimens often carry a premium over spot pricing.
 

I’ll be the first. The added value is that it was your grandfather’s.

Completely priceless compared to a nugget that has identical looking brothers and sisters located all over the place.
(omit reference to truck drivers and traveling salesmen)

I’d lay a bet he found that nugget.

So true on first comment lol. He did travel around a lot. Heck you might be right he could of found it in 1922 on the North Fork of the Salmon River while fishing he's on the left.
