The largest gold nugget found in Alaska is the "Congratulations" nugget, discovered in 1998 near Fairbanks. Weighing approximately 294.10 troy ounces (about 18.4 pounds), it is one of the largest gold nuggets ever found in North America. The nugget was named for the congratulatory message engraved on a plaque commemorating its discovery. Its impressive size and purity have made it a significant find in the history of gold mining in Alaska.
