Question by : What are the mathematical (and other?) possibilities of me finding this? Yesterday I came across advertisement on 1980's jewelers' magazine which displays a huge 13.2 lb nugget of GOLD from Australia and which was being loaned to a private company here in U.S. for promotional endeavors.Today I open up a book about Victoria, Australia which my family is also putting up for auction on internet. And what do you think I find? A small article about the biggest gold nugget in Australia!! So, how do we look at the possibilities here?: 1) Both, magazine and book, were purchased at secondhand store, but doubt they belonged to same previous owner. 2) Supposing previous magazine owner himself were to have "stumbled" upon this book with that article, that in itself is another big coincidence, simply because the book is not about jewelry, gems, or gold, but about a particular city in Australia. 3) Same goes for him having bought that magazine initially after having come across the nugget on the book first. 4) Granted there is a jewelry expert who is also a customer at that store but I hardly can imagine him "parting" with these two items, since, on the contrary he appears to be a hoarder; he simply buys and buys just about anything and never sells anything there! 5) Granted that it might be two different gold nuggets, after all the one on the book is only an illustration and I don't see the weight of it anywhere there. Still if we put this information into a computer what are the possibilities Best answer for What are the mathematical (and other?) possibilities of me finding this?:

James Butchard was a businessman being a partner in Kaye, Butchart & Co a stock and agency company. He had pastoral holdings in Victoria and New South Wales.
Butchard sold Beleura to Charles Edward Bright, founder of Bright Brothers & Co Steamship & General Agents. Beleura was used as a summer retreat by Bright's father-in-law, the Viscount Canterbury, KCB, Governor of Victoria from 1866 until 1873.
The next owner was the Caleb Joshua Jenner. Jenner a businessman, was chairman of Langlands Foundry Co and the first chairman of the Land Mortgage Bank.

Jenner sold the house to Robert Smith, a pastorlist in 1899.

It was then purchased by George Tallis in 1916. Tallis was Chairman of J.C.

He was considered a gentleman and a music composer.
Jack Tallis bequeathed Beleura, its contents and the Tallis Foundation, to the people of Victoria.
