Gold Nugget
Sonora, Mexico
This extraordinary gold nugget, discovered in the arid Sonora Desert, is an exceptionally rare specimen from a location typically inaccessible to collectors. A local prospector unearthed it in an ancient tertiary gold-bearing riverbed. The nugget features a striking luster, with smooth faces in some areas and rugged, robust characteristics in others. On the reverse side, it boasts smooth natural surfaces with a comparable luster. Overall, this gold piece is a substantial chunk with a rich, buttery yellow hue.
