Jinkys!

That's pretty amazing considering how many potential miners missed it.

Right now, I would be excited finding one gram. That would be amazing. I'm sure finding something like that in the 1840s would have made a lot of people happy!

Note the portion of the story that states, "it will be displayed at a Florida coin show this weekend." That would probably be the F.U.N. show in Tampa. Just a guess on my part, but a pretty good one I bet.

Yep, it will be at the Kagin's, Inc. Table #914. See it while you can, the nugget is going to be auctioned in March.

I wonder if this was found with a handheld or one of those truck mounted detectors.
