Gold in a Pan

This is a picture of my FIRST gold purchase. It was a special and exciting moment for me, as now I feel like I really can say that I am a Gold and Silversmith.

Weighing in at 2 grams of 24 carat gold there isn't quite enough form me to make a ring from it yet (which my aunt has placed an order for). I feel this project would be a fitting tribute to these special yellow grains of metal because it would require that I use so many of my Goldsmithing skills.
