I found a decent size nugget in a stream last night as I was walking in it.

The question is can I just take it in to a gold shop, have it weighed and sell it?

It's about half the size of a thumb nail..... Any ideas how much it might be worth?

I'm going to have to get me some equipment and get panning! Razz

That'll be worth some reasonable money (I found one in the Yukon about that size, when gold was less than half what it is now, and it was worth $300). No idea where to sell it though.

Let me know where you end up selling it. I found 35 million won worth of gold coins in a dresser that I need to unload fast.

ChungRo-5-Ga. There are a ton of jewelry stores both on the main road and the back alley. You'll probably find a buyer there. Good luck with it.
