This 0.14 g gold nugget is from Alaska, USA.
Description from the seller
The gold in this Alaskan nugget existed before the Sun.
It was forged more than 4.6 billion years ago, when neutron stars collided in our galaxy in one of the most violent cataclysms in the universe. It traveled through space as stardust, became part of the cloud from which the Sun and Earth were born, and ended up trapped in the mountains of Alaska. Gold is not manufactured or printed: it is found. All the gold that exists is already here, and there will be no more.
This is the gold that sparked the Great Northern Gold Rush. It was discovered at Anvil Creek in 1898, and the following year in the sand on Nome’s beaches. Thousands of people left everything behind to go looking for it. Even today, the prospecting season lasts just a few months: the rest of the year, the ground is frozen. Ice and rivers took millennia to sculpt this nugget, and there is no other like it.
Why do you need gold? Because when money fails, gold still holds its value. In Venezuela, when the bolívar collapsed, people began breaking nuggets into flakes to pay for food, water, or a haircut. They carried them in their pockets, wrapped in banknotes that were already worthless. That is survival.
Wars, ever-growing debt, fear of an economic collapse. The money in your account is the bank’s debt to you—a promise. Gold is nobody’s promise, and no government can print it. That is why nuggets are survival gold: divisible and exchangeable. In a crisis, no one will give you change for a one-kilo bar; a nugget can be weighed, recognized, and exchanged anywhere in the world.
Your nugget arrives in a small glass vial that protects it and lets you examine it without touching it. I ship it as soon as possible after payment.
The time to own gold is before you need it. There is only one nugget like this: when the auction ends, it will belong to whoever bids for it.
Insured, certified shipping as soon as possible

• Collectors of minerals and natural gold nuggets
