- ceejayoz 3y agoIf anyone wants to try it, Sovereign Hill in Ballarat, Australia does daily forgings of a gold bar. They melt it down, pour into a mold, let it cool for a minute or two, and then guests can hold it. I've got a picture of my kids almost dropping ~$300k onto the floor. https://www.sovereignhill.com.au/events/gold-pour/ https://www.sovereignhill.com.au/events/gold-pour/
