Hello,

I am after a single gold nugget. Aiming to somewhere between $500 - $1000, but could spend up to $3000.

Please let respond if you can help me out,

Thanks
 
Thanks mate, few questions.

does this nugget have quartz in it, where i have attached the photo?

Are those other necklace nuggets in the top of the photos for sale?

Yes that is a tiny bit of quartz pretty normal to get a bit after all it did originate from a quartz matrix. At least you know its not crappy melted down jewelry.
If the price was right (make an offer) I'd consider selling the nugget necklace, the loop was made from reef gold fines so colour matches the nugget. (wasn't a cheap exercise but worth it) NOT like those (most) that have a 9ct bail soldered on (they look rubbish) Screenshot_20220519_195849_com.android.gallery3d.jpgScreenshot_20220519_195837_com.android.gallery3d.jpg
 
Well i wouldn't mind this one, but given you said it was a pricey exercise, i wont bother offering.
got any other nuggets around 10grams?

Yes that's a really nice Nugget, hangs perfectly so you can't see the hanger if worn and looks like a bull or rams head. Was found in Victoria nr Beaufort (50km west of Ballarat.
Might have others, I think there's a 13 grammer but not cleaned, I'll have a look in the bucket later.
 
goldred, it's 11 grams. You can afford something 1 gram less, i would check my finances. Mackka
he is implying because it has had jewlers work done on it, its going to be allot more expensive than the value of the nugget

Here's a few nuggets not been soaked in Alibrite as I'm not near to a supercheap auto store to buy some so there's a fun job for you. Can't see any quartz but nuggets usually have a few tiny specs (Alibrite will eat it if present) $83 gram plus $15 postage. Jewelry finished piece $1,250
