Gold Nugget
Sonora, Mexico
This extraordinary gold nugget, uncovered in the dry Sonora Desert, is an exceptionally rare specimen, typically beyond the reach of collectors. Found by a local prospector in an ancient tertiary gold-rich riverbed, this nugget exhibits a striking luster, with smooth faces in some areas and rugged, robust surfaces in others. On the reverse side, it showcases smooth, natural surfaces with a similar sheen. This gold specimen is a solid chunk with a rich, buttery yellow hue.
