Yukon Stogie:
The Gold Collection

Yukon Stogie grew out of a shared family passion for gold, hard work, and the stories behind every piece pulled from the earth. My son, known online as The Gold Baron, has been selling gold paydirt, nuggets, pickers, and Goldbacks for years through his Whatnot shop and his website, GoldBaronPaydirt. I’ve been part of that journey from the beginning: helping at his Washington gold claim, supporting his live shows, and working alongside him as he built his brand.

​

My own gold fever started long before that, back when I worked at Gold Dredge 8 in Alaska. That’s where I learned to pan and first felt the excitement of "seeing color." Since then, I’ve become an experienced panner and a collector of Goldbacks, pickers, and natural nuggets.

​

Yukon Stogie is my way of contributing to the family effort — bringing my experience, my eye for quality, and my love of the craft into a space of my own. This is a family endeavor, built on trust, hands‑on knowledge, and a genuine appreciation for gold in all its forms.

​

Whether it’s a crisp Goldback, a bright picker, or a nugget pulled from Washington ground, everything I offer reflects the same authenticity and care that define our work as a family.
