Mr Stewart had stopped at the side of the road to repair the chain on his bicycle, which he was riding because his car had earlier broken down. His bad luck ended, however, when he noticed gold glinting from a clod of earth alongside the road. He dug the 22-ounce nugget out with his hands, then washed it in a nearby stream to confirm he had discovered gold.

A California couple who found a $10 million trove of buried gold coins may not have been that lucky after all. The coins were likely stolen from the US Mint in 1900, according to a published source, and are thus government property. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, news of the crime was revealed through a search of the Haiti Trust Digital Library conducted by Northern California fishing guide Jack Trout, a historian and rare coin collector. The anonymous California couple noticed the edge of an old can on a path they had hiked many times before. Poking about in the container was the first step in discovering a $10 million hidden trove of rare coins. “It was like finding a hot potato,” the couple told Don Kagin of Kagin’s, Inc., a coin dealer. The couple hired the president of Kagin’s, Inc. and Holabird-Kagin Americana, a western Americana dealer and auctioneer, to represent them. The coins are mostly uncirculated and in mint condition, and have ...

PlayStation's DualSense Edge launched this week. The newest controller for the PS5 boasting more features than the regular DualSense that comes with the console. As reviews and teardowns of the Edge start to pour in, it has already been revealed the pricey controller has a smaller battery than a run-of-the-mill DualSense. It had already been confirmed by PlayStation that its new controller would have a shorter battery life, those additional features being blamed for that. However, a look inside the new controller courtesy of Budd's Controllers (thanks, VGC) has revealed something PlayStation did not. That the physical size of the battery powering the Edge is significantly smaller than the one found in a DualSense.

Two months after injuring his big toe, New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram is expected to return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to The Athletic.  "I didn't think it would take this long," Ingram said after practice Tuesday. "But I had to listen to my body before I got back on the floor with my teammates and before I got back to playing basketball." Ingram added: "I feel like I'm a fresher body than everybody else. Everybody beat up. I've just had a chance to let my body rest for a little bit and come back off of injury." In late December , Ingram said that he would be back on the floor when he feels like himself again. On Tuesday, he said he is "still fighting through some things, but it's tolerable right now and I'm able to do some things effectively," adding that...

The Los Angeles Lakers traded for Wizards forward Rui Hachimura on Monday and our Sam Quinn gave the move an A-  for L.A., if only because the Lakers didn't give up either of their coveted first-round picks to get him.  Chances are, unless you're a Wizards fan, you're more familiar with Hachimura's name than his Game . Generally speaking, he has the 6-foot-8 and sturdy size that everyone wants in a defensive wing these days, and he can shoot. The former will help the Lakers as it would help anyone, specifically as it will take some of that defensive burden off LeBron James to cover for what is an incredibly small team.  But it's the latter point that will determine how much of an impact he really makes for the Lakers, who are a bad shooting team that would greatly benefit from Hachimura catching a couple-month hot streak as they try to sneak into the playoffs.  There's hope on this front. H...

The Justice Department is investigating conduct at the Abbott infant formula plant in Sturgis, Michigan, a source familiar with the matter told ABC News. The Justice Department is investigating conduct at Abbott Laboratories' infant formula plant in Sturgis, Michigan, in connection with a contamination investigation that closed the plant last year, a source familiar with the matter told ABC News. The monthslong shutdown of the plant amid a investigation helped trigger a nationwide formula shortage. An Abbott spokesperson told ABC News, "DOJ has informed us of its investigation and we’re cooperating fully." The DOJ did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden have finally come to modern consoles, but it's not a moment to celebrate for everyone. If you go to view the credits sequences of both titles, you'll find that translators for both have not been included, sparking outrage from a number of people online. Included among these people is Katrina Leonoudakis, former localization coordinator for Persona publisher Sega. Leonoudakis has claimed that she urged the team that took over for her after she left Sega to ensure the FIGS (French, Italian, German, Spanish) teams were credited for their work on the titles. Unfortunately, it seems her pleas were ignored, as FIGS translators don't seem to be included in either Game 's final credits.

The fist-sized lump of precious metal weighs more than 6lb (2.8kg) and is expected to carry a price tag of $350,000 (£220,000). The chunk is known as the Butte Nugget, after the Northern California county where a gold hunter says it was found in July. The owner, who wishes to remain anonymous, said it was mined on public land in a mountain range. But he asked dealer Don Kagin to keep his name and the exact location of the discovery secret. David McCarthy, a rare minerals expert, told the San Francisco Chronicle he was escorted blindfolded to the site to check it was genuine. Mr Kagin said he had taken pains to establish the veracity of this find after he was hoodwinked in 2011 when another nugget purportedly unearthed in Sierra Nevada, California, turned out to have come from Australia. That seller was trying to inflate the price of his land where he falsely claimed the 8.2lb chunk, which sold for nearly half a million dollars, had been discovered. The Butte...

This summer gold has been the worst performing precious metal, with its price dropping nearly 40% lower since its 2011 peak. What else is there to know about the world’s most revered special metal? 1) Jewellery In Q2 of this year – April to June – gold demand dropped to a six-year low, with the biggest factor behind its decline being driven by cooling demand for jewellery. That has slipped 14% year-on-year. Although gold is used as an investment and for Technology such as mobile phone components, jewellery is by far the largest gold ‘consumer’ with just over half of all gold being used in jewellery. China and India are the two biggest purchasers of gold for jewellery purposes. However, in the second quarter of this year Indian demand fell by almost a quarter (-23%). 2) India Jewellery demand in India is predominately driven by the Indian wedding season. There are a lot of marital superstitions in the sub-continent so the lack of...

Matt Prior was diving at South West Rock, on the mid north coast of New South Wales, when a Grey Nurse Shark began to glide past him, the MailOnline reports. He captured the heart-stopping moment when the toothy predator swam towards the diver. The shark bared its razor sharp teeth at Mr Prior, but the terrifying creature keeps swimming on in another direction. Grey Nurse Sharks, which are considered to be an endangered species, are found most commonly in the east and west coasts of Australia. They are not usually considered to be a threat to swimmers. The shark was captured in the sea and video footage shows a lifeguard beckoning an unsuspecting swimmer who was close to the beast. The creature is seen swimming along the shoreline as onlookers stand on the beach and a lifeguard calls swimmers out of the water. It appears to head towards a woman swimming on her own further out in the sea and the lifeguard tries to alert her. Video: Source: ht...
