World's Largest Gold Nuggets

#1 Welcome Stranger nugget weighing in at 2316 oz., found on February 5th, 1869 in Moliagul, Victoria, Australia. It was discovered by John Deason and Richard Oates just 2 inches below the surface near a root of a tree in Bulldog Gully.  It measured 2 ft x 1.02 ft in size.  Due to the size of the nugget it could not be weighed on any scales at the time and had to be broken down into 3 smaller pieces.  It was melted down shortly after finding and only recreations of the nugget made from drawings exist.  One replica of the "Welcome Stranger" nugget can be found at the City Museum in Treasury Place, in Melbourne, Victoria.  The other replica is owned by descendants of John Deason.

#2 Pepita Canaa nugget weighing in at 2145 oz., found Sept 13, 1983 by miners at the Serra Pelada Mine in the State of Para, Brazil.  It currently resides in the Banco Central Museum in Brazil.
