Gold Piece guide
If you work The Mineshaft with a Magnet, Gold Piece is one of the Rare catches you can expect. The description calls it a shiny fragment of pure gold broken off a richer vein, and the value backs that up: it pays C$845 per kg.
It is a light catch. Weights run from 0.2 kg to 3.4 kg with an average of 0.9 kg, so a typical Gold Piece sells for about C$760.5. That ranks 351st of the 742 documented fish, comfortably above the middle, even though its max weight ranks 568th of 663 and is nothing to brag about. It also gives 210 base XP.
The useful lesson is that a high price per kg does not need a heavy fish. Because the weight is small, the payout stays steady and predictable. For anyone farming The Mineshaft, it is a solid sell rather than something to hold onto, and the Magnet bait is the only requirement the data lists, with no weather, season or hour restrictions to plan around.
