* “Boot of Cortez” Gold Nugget Sold at Auction
DALLAS - A gold nugget weighing more than 26 pounds has been sold for $1,553,500.00 in a public auction in Dallas. The fabled "Boot of Cortez," a nearly 12-inch-long gold nugget weighing 389.4 ounces, was purchased in Sunday's auction conducted by Heritage Auction Galleries. "It's the largest surviving gold nugget ever discovered in the Western hemisphere," said David Herskowitz, director of natural history for the auction house. "It was found in the Sonora Desert in 1989, by a local man using a metal detector he'd just bought at Radio Shack." The more than 24-pound nugget was displayed last year in the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The buyer is an American philanthropist who wishes to see it return to public display "in the very near future."
