For a gold nugget, this free-form, sculptural, "tortured look," and flattened specimen is extremely aesthetic. The edges were "tortured" or folded, either by natural forces during gold deposition or by very light river tumbling. The rich, yellow color is mesmerizing and the form is interesting. Its weight is 11 grams.
