<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brokecoinguy, post: 2759423, member: 85775&quot;]Slightly misleading with the title but from my screen name you should know that I don&#039;t have any gold to give <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I do, however, want to share some photos of my recent trip to the Dahlonega Gold Museum.&nbsp; Because I do quite a bit of work in North Georgia I typically swing through Dahlonega on my way home when the opportunity presents itself.&nbsp; Apart from the incredible history, Dahlonega is simply a beautiful town that is definitely worth the visit.&nbsp; The museum is run by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and with a small admission fee you get to watch a detailed video on the history of local gold production, have access to some pretty incredible displays (history, maps, equipment, nuggest, etc), and you even get a tour of the building at the end.&nbsp; Because the bricks in the building were made from clay out of local streams, even they have flakes of gold in them!</p><p><br /></p><p>One of the only places (that I know of) where you can see a complete set of Dahlonega gold coins - not to mention some pretty huge nuggets.&nbsp; Pictures of the coins are not allowed so don&#039;t mind the terrible quality, I had to be sneaky.&nbsp; Apparently the coins were stolen last time they were put on public display.&nbsp; Hope ya&#039;ll enjoy![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
