I wanted to thank our good friend's Trevor (TWA) and his wife Hazel
in Western Australia. They are great folks. He sent me a picture of some of the gold he has found detecting. I think he said Hazel once found a 32 ounce nugget!!! :o WOW...Pretty nice! I'll ask if I can post her pic with it on a table. It's very cool.  His friend Matt Duncan in Australia also has a great website, check it out. http://www.goldnuggetexchange.com/index.html Like I said "Australia has great gold, and great people!

Hi all I thought it was about time to place another post so to start with I thought perhaps 2 more pics showing the Finch against a black background as this seems to enhance the color more so.
Time to edit as I forgot to include the weight, this being 418 grams.
