Great news find, Prince!




Excerpt from article in the above post:

There is no evidence at the site that shows how it was made, he said. But it looks like a nugget of native raw gold, which occurs near the area, was pounded flat in a stone mortar and pestle.Then the gold was probably wrapped around a piece of wood and pounded until it was folded into a tube, he said.
stones, identified as either greenstone or turquoise, with holes in them that were found in the same grave.

It ties into why we both collect coins I think - the "historical artifact" aspect ...
