This .738 gram gold nugget from the Yukon Territory is a compact, well-formed natural piece with strong visual character for its size. Falling into the approximate #4 mesh range, it presents a tight, triangular profile that gives it a distinctive and balanced appearance.
 
The nugget shows rich, warm golden coloration with a naturally textured surface. Small folds, shallow pits, and uneven contours are clearly visible, creating depth and variation across the surface. These natural features catch light from multiple angles, giving the nugget a lively look despite its sub-gram weight. The edges appear rounded and cohesive rather than thin or flaky, contributing to a solid, durable feel.
 
Visually, the nugget has a pleasing sense of mass relative to its weight, driven by its compact shape rather than excess host rock.
 
Nuggets in this size range are popular with collectors who appreciate individual character without moving into larger specimens. This piece works well as a standalone display nugget, an addition to a Yukon or Canadian gold collection, or a candidate for custom jewelry where natural form and texture are preferred over symmetry.
 
Common uses include:
Display specimen for a natural gold collection
Addition to a Yukon or Canadian gold grouping
Accent piece for custom jewelry designs
Gift for collectors or enthusiasts of natural gold
