Steve Herschbach Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 From the Tarrangower Times this morning: By this time, you may have smelt a rat, and your instincts are correct! Tuesday next week just happens to be 1 April - April Fool's Day. Alas, Bill the prospector does not exist, and neither does his fabulous gold nugget. Instead, the mythical Welsh Swagman was created from playdough, baked in an oven for a few hours, and covered in gold paint. We hope you enjoyed our annual April Fool's Day story! http://www.goldandrelics.com.au/in-the-media/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BF44 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 On 3/27/2014 at 10:52 PM, Steve Herschbach said: The texture looks off to me, more like something made in a mold. But I do not get to look at very many 279 oz nuggets so what do I know? Should be a lot more news in the next few days. I can't imagine any natural process that would create that finish. Creek gold can be smoothed over from the water but this one seems wrong. But like you said not being exposed to any nuggets of that sizewe are just grasping at straws.
