Shouldn't have reported it.  Have it smelted down and shop it around piecemeal to several vendors.

315k.  Plus another 50% for a finders fee.  Nice find!  I'd trade it for something valuable.......like lead.

Worrh way, way more than spot. Nuggets bigger than a quarter have intrinsic value way over spot price. That nugget is worth millions, probably bring 2-5 mil at auction.

If I found that, there is absolutely zero doubt that I'd keep a chunk to smelt and cast a bullet or two out of.

It is worth what someone is willing to pay, no historric value in the gold only the size/quantity of the chunk.

Absolutely wrong. The "Golden Nugget" at the "Golden Nugget" in Las Vegas sold for MANY times it's value in ounces. So do other large nuggets.

...........and the taxman will rape you for half of that value or more if not fuck you out of it completely via some bullshit claim or law.  Resist inviting the man in into your life wherever possible.
