Early Gold Nugget stick pin.

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.

no added value for the nugget. Asking if any added value for it being a old stick pin lol.

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.

great picture. By the look of his ears he must have been 67ish in that photo?

The 1920’s were a great period in the US.

I wouldn’t ever consider selling that pin.

Problem today is finding family to pass it on to that won’t just sell it for a fishing trip without a second thought.
