Like a large bag in the grocery store?

The bank has told me to stop trying to cash that stuff in, so I’m guessing $0.

Essentially nil. If there was even a traceable amount, it would pay to extract it and repackage the potting soil.

I doubt there would be any gold in potting soil, but this guy has found gold in sand from a hardware store:
