Hi Friends,
As a precious metal investor, I like to buy a variety of things. I wanted to share a recent pick up of a gold nugget... check it out:
This is 2.3 grams of gold from Mohave County, Arizona. These natural gold nuggets are super cool, I just wish I could find them myself! I hope to find one this size one day, but for now, I am just adding it to the gold pile.
This was my second purchase from NaturalGoldTrader.com and I have had great experiences both times. Check them out if you are interested in buying gold specimens like this. They threw this 1/10th ounce silver round in for free as well:
Minted fractional gold is so expensive these days - for a 1/10th ounce gold American Eagle, you are paying $260 ($190 is spot price), and then you have 10% sales tax (in California) of $26 on top of that, so, out the door, you are paying $286 for $190 worth of gold - too expensive! Buying a full ounce is a much better idea when it comes to premiums, but they are hard to resell any higher than spot price and its tough to find buyers when the price is $2,000+ for a one ounce gold coin. A stackers dilema for sure.
Thanks for coming by!

Ohh ...sales tax on precious metals, I am lucky that in Washington there's no sales tax, it is considered money.
They really do jack up the price on fractional gold premiums, it makes it difficult to stack at a reasonable value....
Yeah, the sales tax is killer... thanks for coming by!
I'll keep in mind to bring my Metal Detector when I am out around the Mojave Arizona area. 😉
The Natural way to Stack.
Hehe, what kind of metal detector do you have?!
Garrett 400i, i for international metric.
Nice 😎 i find myself in arizona from time to time (near laughlin). If you are serious about detecting out there let me know and we can go out to the gold grounds 👍🏻 (maybe Oatman area)
Pretty neat!
I don't mind adding that to my stack!!!
You should check them out! Good experiences each time!
Do ever bring the wife along?
I usually go by myself or with a friend - my wife isn’t in to gold prospecting (yet!) plus I need her to watch the kids so I can go dig in the dirt! Still a little dangerous for the kids, unfortunately.
Wait till they are grown!!! 🥰🌺🤙 !ENGAGE
If you come down to So Cal you (and anyone else you are with) can do some prospecting with me and Derek - he is the expert down here.
Oh, BTW, in a scheduled post coming out 14:55 today in Leofinance, I mentioned you and Derek! Please join the contest @brian.rrr!
ENGAGEtokens.Cool looking nugget. Too bad you didn’t find it yourself and had to pay for it. Hopefully soon you will.
Hopefully I will find a big one soon. Seems most big nuggets are found with expensive metal detectors - haven’t wanted to spend $800 to $5,000 just to have the capability (still need to find the time to get out to the gold grounds). Most of the gold I find is very small, but it does add up.

@brian.rrr, Hope that you will start your own Treasure Hunt Journey very soon. Stay blessed.
I haven't tried to find buyers for my gold, I hope I don't have to either. What did that nugget cost you?

$187.50 total - reasonable, and there generally are premiums for nuggets as they also have collectors value.
Thanks, that is good to know. I didn't know people collect them that way.

Thanks for showing the store of value in such small packages, @brian.rrr. That gold nugget is really cool.
I've wanted a nugget for a while now. Its a cool stack addition!
I like the way you explain about gold
