I think this is real gold but cant be sure.

If you have a gold acid test, it can tell you if it is or not. Remember the old days when a miner would bite down on it to see if it was gold? It was to see if teeth marks were left on it. I suggest not doing that because it might hurt your teeth or worse break them. As stated an acid test is probably your best bet.

Looks good in the pictures. Looks like placer gold. I call them pickers, you can pick them out of the pan with your fingers. Acid test is best, if you want to be sure. Also gold will flatten very thin and not shatter, but doing that ruins your specimen.

It would appear that there are traces of black sand in vial too...a good sign for placer gold.amazon has test kits cheap also.

I'm thinking Pyrite, for two reasons.
1. In the provided images, the nuggets appear to be too shiny to be gold.
2. The nuggets appear to have flakes coming off of them.

if it's gold, it looks odd to me, sort of like tooth gold that was melted down and not cleaned. Looks like sulphide except for the lack of geometric shaping, like I said, my guess would be crude smelted jewelery or gold from teeth.
