  1. That is one pile of nuggets. Are they all actually from sierra county? Im sure an Angeli flask is worth more than its weight in gold.

  4. You can buy gold any day of the week, 365 days a year 24/7. You can even find it somewhat regularly coming the beach with a detector. But how frequently is there a chance to buy a mint Angeli flask? Maybe once in a decade if you're in the right place at the perfect time with enough coin...Or to dig one?? Probably never, or once in a lifetime if you are a highly dedicated digger & LUCKY!
