Alaska’s gold history remains vibrant, especially in the Yukon-Koyukuk region where large nuggets are still found. A single 20-ounce nugget discovered there can be valued at over $90,000 in today’s market. This natural purity draws thousands of prospectors to the Last Frontier every summer. #AlaskaGold #GoldPanning #Prospecting #USPreciousMetals | Gold USD
