Just thought I'd share this pic of my first gold nugget I found a couple of months ago near Mudgee.
It weighed in at 4.2 grams.

I had a look at your profile and you were a member if you found it a couple of months ago. Gold Nugget award posted.
Good bit for your first.

Nice, now you just have to go back there and find the rest of it's family to reunite them, hopefully it was the baby and comes from a big family of very obese nuggets.
