The Gold Nugget Australia is also known for the incredible size and shape of gold nuggets found in the outback. In fact, the largest gold nugget ever found, the Welcome Stranger, was found in 1869 in Victoria, Australia. Its gross weight was 3523.5 troy ounces, so it was more like a gold stone than a gold nugget! The largest gold nugget still in existence, the Hand of Faith, was also discovered in Australia, in 1980, by a metal detectorist. It weighs 874.82 troy ounces. Investment Note This artistically-rendered beauty contains a full half-gram of four nines (.9999) pure gold.
