18 K earring laying on top of a sand bar;I think I'll wear it to the Innaugural Ball
typo: should read "inaugural"
That is...if I get invited
Hi,
Got in a 2 1/2 hr. hunt this morning following the tide out.
Was finding only clads in the first 2 hrs. and was ready to "call it a day" , but looked across at a sand bar and thought " why not give it a try"...that's where I found this 18 K ornate earring in full view just laying there on top of the wet sand mound!
In addition to the 18K stamping, I filed a tiny piece and acid tested it...result 18K
But here's the thing: I didn't see it there until after the coil went over it and I heard the sound...maybe I need glasses?
The matching one was no where to be found.
The stones are pretty, but faux
Here's some pics
Thanks for looking
Lorraine
