Decided to hit the local beach today. Went in the water about waist deep and found the normal stuff. Keys, Clad, etc... Then I got a solid tone which I dont get to excited because every once in awhile you will hit a peice of coal. But what do my eyes see in my scoop.. GOLD...And lots of it.. My heart dropped and I looked for a halmark. It said 14K Italy Sweet. But I have seen that on fake stuff before so I didnt get overly excited. But curiosity got me and I couldnt wait anymore so I left and stopped at Kingston Fine Jewlery and the lady takes it in the back. She comes out and puts it on the scale and offers me 521 dollars for it. I declined the offer and left very happy. I am still smiling from ear to ear. The weird part about it is it isnt even broken its perfectly in tack from clasp to the other end. The only other thing I found worth anything was a big silver hoop earing that says KAYLA on it.. O ya the chain wheighs 32.5 Grams of 14K

Don't it make your blood rush!!!!!!!!!!! At close on Fri. 14k on kitco was 20.60 a gram or $669.50 for 32.5 grams. Not bad for 1 scoop.
