White's Goldmaster II "gold nugget card"

Hi Everyone,

Back about 18 years or so ago, I received a gift White's Goldmaster II "gold nugget card", plasticized, enveloping a small nugget, and overall about the size of a slightly enlarged credit card. One side advertised the White's logo and the Goldmaster II etc, the other side had the nugget plus various weight equivalents. If anyone recalls it, can you make an estimate of the nugget weight?
I think it's about a grain or so, but that's a guess. Anyone? Thanks...Jim.

jim that doesnt sound to bad for depth, the thing i like on the t-2 is the excellent tone modulation, my whites qxt was also great for that, bought a xt 50 for my son, and played with it a little more this weekend ,up north near the old gold mine areas, not impressed with the rough gb adjustments or audio mod. have to try the 18.75dd next time. wasnt looking for gold, have a very trashy iron loaded site of about 10 acres where you cant move more than 16" with out hitting scrap. charcoal kilns [1860s] for the pig iron furnaces, from what ive read the RR system used wooden rails between kilns areas, this spot has 7 kilns and there are suppose to be 125 kilns along this track system. ive lived in this area most of my life, riding dirt bikes and never seen any others, going to have to break down and follow the spikes one day, and find more of the kilns
