1.38 Troy Ounce Alaska Gold Nugget (SOLD)

This big gold nugget comes from the Fortymile Mining District in remote Eastern Alaska near the Yukon border. Gold was first discovered in the area in the fall of 1886, and miners have been working the gravels of this remote district ever since.

The biggest "town" in this area is named Chicken with a population of 17, although during the summer months miners pour into this remote area to mine for gold during the short summer mining season.

This nugget is a fine example of Fortymile gold. It is smooth and dense and weighs a whopping 43.00 grams or 1.38 troy ounces.

This nugget will ship for FREE and comes in a nice display case. Due to the high value of this gold nugget payment needs to be via wire transfer or bank check (unless you are an established customer with us). Contact us if you want to add this dandy nugget to your personal collection.
