Took the kids to the playground at the school close by today for a little bit and found my first gold. I had made up my mind before ever getting out of the jeep that i was going to dig everything above an IRON ID. This was my second "pull tab" hit and turned out to be a 24" 14k ITALY chain. SWEEET! Also my 4 year old kept asking for my pro pointer so i gave it to him walking back to the jeep and he turned it on and stuck it to the ground, and ill be damned if he didnt get his very first find (i had to help dig it of course). great day for both of us.

What a cutie!! Looks like you had a lot of fun =) Grats on the necklace as well!!:hello2:
 

That's one heck of a chain.looks like yaw had a ball.way to go buddy
 

chain is pretty sweet! There are a lot of fakes out there, probably not a bad idea to get it tested just to be 100% sure
 

Looks like father and son both followed that little three letter word "try" and both hit pay dirt both in finds and in togetherness! Great post.................63bkpkr

Sorry it turned out that way, but at least you had a nice time out with your little helper. I find that my ProPointer is like a magic wand when the kids are around. They all want to find treasure with it!
 

Great find. Congrats! I can't wait till my first gold find!
