Hi All,
A good friend of our family just sent me this photo. While visiting with one of her clients; Rio Tinto, she had the opportunity to hold this monster. She didn't know how many ounces the bar was, but said it felt as if it weighed 50 lbs! I thought you guys would enjoy seeing the pic...

Nice, very nice gold. I'm waiting for my detector coil to find its way over a long lost stash of those.

OH! Yeh I'd like one of those too! I heard thats why the 4500 are in demand in the middle east, there looking for gold buried by Saddam, that he hid before the attack and it has not all been found, but some has, out in the desert. Grubstake

If I melted my debt down into a gold bar, it would be about that size.
