Auction #1- a very nice gold nugget

Let's get this started shall we...

The first item for your consideration is a gold nugget donated by one of our members. She's a beauty with lots of character. It is an Alaskan nugget and is not worn smooth. The battery is down on my scale so I will estimate the weight to be 1/2 gram more or less. For your reference, the nugget is pictured in a 1 inch round gem display jar.
If you want it mailed, it will be with insurance. The price will be $3 within the US. Sorry, no international shipping is available. This price will be added to the winning bid.
This auction will begin now and end April 22 at 8 pm eastern time.

I am opening the bidding with my $5 bid.

Sorry bout your back! (hope it gets better for the season) BUT I will go $30.00 on the nugget I Gotta work the shop (so we won't be down to help again).
But! we do have a project coming up for the auction after the shows in May (Indiana and Oklahoma) it will be a proto type complete and ready to go It still has to go through Shelley's pick and kick session before it is released to the public but I think most will like it.. We might even have one for the club .
