sometime it's not the cost of slabbing or $$ of the item that counts, it's the coolness factor that cannot be calculated

Agree, but the cost will come to play when you try to sell it.

Maybe yes & maybe no. In my case my heirs will inherit it & I’ll specify it will be part of the permanent estate

That pinch of gold from the S S Central America is very cool. I'd be concerned that the gold sliding around in the slab would eventually cause the slab window to become cloudy.

I think that a pinch is like the new math equivalent of $130/$135.

Looks like a buffalo facing right, I like it a lot. I went gold panning yesterday and found some flour size specs. Did you find this one or by it?

If I remember right this is an American River nugget I found back in the late 1960's or early 70's. Weighs right at 51 grams. Sold it a few years back to a fellow formite.
