golden nugget

I dreamt that a friend of mine (PC) and myself and a friend of her's (S), were traveling. She was  looking for clues to something... like each clue led her to somewhere else. She was carrying something like a gold nugget, but it had writing on it. We were at some event at a cemetery or something and she spoke to a woman that made her feel like she was on the right track. Then she was in the cemetery and found a matching stone to her gold nugget thing. She started digging and she had the final confirmation regarding being on the right path and something about a son... it seemed as though it was her son although she doesn't have one, but maybe a son like relationship or someone from a past life that was helping her in this one.
