I found this today, thought it was part of a junk ring so I through it in my finds bag. Later, when I went to clean it, it felt heavy, like lead, and it had a nice yellow color. Well, it was then I realized it was "tooth shaped,a gold tooth"! Weighs in at 1.5 grams, my first gold of the year!

Unique find that turns up time to time. Usually lower carat (more alloy, less gold) like 10kt, to withstand biting pressure. The local jeweler/coin dealer here will pay $20 ea for gold crowns.
