Last weekend I went to the fairgrounds to hunt on Sunday, the day after the Huka concert.

Oh the crazy hippies. Must have been smokin' hash and dancing around and lost it.

I found what looked like a gold nugget. I knew it was a pendant because of the hoop fixed on top, but didn't know if it was fake or real. I took it to the jeweler on Monday, and got it back today. Thought I'd wait to post until I knew I had something or not.

The wieght is 13.90, I assume grams, that's what he told me. They did an acid test and said it was 14k and that most likely someone had likely had some broken chains melted down into this nugget, but not purified into 24k.

One cent for size reference.
