Hey everyone I need your help. I live on the treasure coast in FL and checking out the beach today I found this interesting object. It's not a shell and honestly I have no idea what it could be but maybe emralds? Could this be from the 1715 spanish fleet that sank here ? Any ideas?!?! 20210621_153548.webp20210621_153534.webp

Sorry Martinm1... When you find an Emerald from a shipwreck the first thing you will think when you see it is...

"Is that glass or ".... because the green will hit ya square on.

Better luck next time. :)
 

I do it enough here... sheesh... besides... i was just waiting for someone to do it...

The n came along Bart... and i knew i could bait that hook :)

And.... i needed "backup" anyway.

:P
Bart is da man. His handle is "Blak Bart". Shoots from the hip.
 

Well the op, says that a jeweler said it was jade ?? Maybe so ?? Shooting from the hip like black Bart diggler does.....I could be wrong ??:laughing7::tongue3::laughing7:
 

Very cool !
 

I mean it looks like the raw emeralds I've found at the Emerald Hollow mine in North Carolina, actually some of those in the clump look much better. I can't imagine what else it would be unless it's some super weird beach glass and clay
