AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

PLEASE READ VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE BIDDING.

It is NOT investment gold but COLLECTION gold

You will not purchase a single nugget weighing 0.50 g, but you will purchase alluvial gold powder with a maximum size of 1 mm for a total weight of 0.50 g.
Gold dust was extracted from the Ticino River near the town of Oleggio, in the province of Novara, Piedmont region, Italy.
Being gold powder (with a maximum size of 1 mm as shown in the photos), inside there could be some tiny crystals of magnetite or lead that are impossible to remove unless melting all the gold. For this reason, to avoid the problem, I add an extra 0.01 g of gold powder to the 0.50 g weight.
Photos can be misleading regarding the real size of the gold powders, because they are produced by magnifying the gold powder with an 8x zoom.
The gold dust will be contained in a small glass ampoule with a cork stopper, placed in a plastic box.
Gold dust is extracted (in compliance with national laws, using only manual tools and without the use of chemical products)
The gold dust you will buy is not investment-grade gold but collectible gold.
