This lucky man is Oscar Espinoza, who lives in California, USA.
Espinoza discovered this gold nugget on September 6th in the Woodscreek area.
It weighs 510 grams and is considered by many gold connoisseurs to be a precious, high-purity piece of gold. Therefore, its selling price is 4-5 times higher than that of ordinary gold bars.
