It's definitely worth more than that. I watched the YouTube video of him holding it and his hands were shaking.. Rightfully so!

That nugget has also been making the Cable News Stations. Gawd, if I'd found that thing, would have called 911 to haul my shaking body back to my house. Good for that man.

That's what my wife says, real sassy like, "It wouldn't do us any good, you'd just keep it and not tell anybody." Sure would be nice to just see how I'd react though. Think about it, like winning the lottery, relatives would be coming out of the wood work, the gummit would want a cut if not most of it, and your life would defiantly change, not necessarily for the better. Doesn't stop me from looking though, and I think every one of you knows what I mean.
