In 1969 in Moliagul, a small township located in Victoria, Australia, a golden nugget was unearthed by two lucky prospectors.

The nugget weighed an astounding 3,123 ounces or 241 pounds and was discovered a mere 3 centimeters below the earth’s surface!

The nugget made headlines around the world and is understood to be the largest gold nugget ever discovered and was named the “Welcome Home Stranger.”

In 2011, the Perth mint immortalized this nugget and cast its likeness on a limited edition 9999 pure gold coin.

This limited edition, proof coin, is made available to you for the best price online!

Illustrated on the reverse is the legendary, welcome stranger golden nugget, surrounded by lines that are reminiscent of sun rays.

The inscription, “Welcome Stranger 1869,” is seen below with the Perth Mint, “P,” which is an added security feature.

“The Australian Nugget,” in addition to the purity, year of issue, and denomination, are all included in the ring, which encapsulates the nugget.

The obverse contains the contemporary effigy of her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, designed by famed English sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley, with her title, the nation of issue, and the 100 dollars denominational value.

Coins with limited mintage figures such as this 1 oz proof, maintain collector appeal for its numismatic value as well as it’s precious metal content.
