“A Stroke of Extraordinary Fortune: Young Father Strikes Gold with Two Coveted Coiossaí Nuggets”
In a tale that seems plucked from the pages of a treasure hunter’s fantasy, a young father was graced by an astonishing stroke of luck. Nestled on a private property in Tarnagulla, near the illustrious goldfields of Bendigo, north of Melbourne, he unearthed not one but two remarkable Coiossaí gold nuggets. Weighing an impressive 140 ounces and boasting a combined value of nearly $200,000, these dazzling nuggets bestowed boundless joy upon their fortunate discoverer, who opted to maintain anonymity to safeguard his newfound wealth.
Ray Swinnerton, the Vice President of the Bendigo Probe Club, shared in the winner’s euphoria, understanding that unearthing such a natural treasure is an unequivocal once-in-a-lifetime moment, a testament to the allure and magic of the goldfields.
A young dad hit the jackpot on his private property in Tarnagulla when he unearthed two remarkable nuggets. The first nugget weighed an impressive 65 ounces, worth nearly $90,000.
The second nugget was even more substantial, weighing 72 ounces and carrying a street value exceeding $100,000. The exciting discovery left the young father overjoyed. Ray Swinnerton, Vice President of the Bendigo Prospecting Club, shared the sentiment of elation.
seɩɩing the gold can also be difficuɩt because a licence is needed to sell to overseas buyers.
‘I believe he has soɩd one of the nuggets and is preparing to sell the other. To sell gold overseas you need to get a licence which is very difficuɩt to obtain, so it can take a while to sell them within Australia, as there are more affluent people overseas,‘ Mr Swinnerton said.
