Follow that truck; it's leaving silver behind!..925 locket this morning

Hi,

Was out hunting for 2 1/2 hrs. early this morning before the high temps arrived.

High tide / dry sand hunt; the beach truck was in operation, so I followed behind it as it smoothed the sand making it much easier to walk along and grid.

Was finding many coins , and then I got a nice high tone and dug up what I thought was maybe
a junk metal, but on further scrutiny I realized that is was an ornate locket ; actually it's a half locket-back is missing

First locket I have found...maybe I will now cross it off my "bucket list".

Here's some pics

As always, thanks for looking at my post / pics

thank you, SurfnTurf. Yes, I think it is an "oldie"...must have been in that salty sand for many moons to have such a thickly adherent coating on it.

I would love to find the back of this locket some day
