I went to the beach this morning between tides it was out the white sand was frozen a few inches but easy to dig it in the wet part but it was COLD ! plus the onshore winds brrrrrrr i lasted maybe 40 minutes
about a few minutes into it i hit a good signal with my DFX came up +12 showed a ring about 6 inches deep on my second scoop i had it i know what it is a Crucifix made in Italy but not sure what its made of ?? might be tarnished silver or copper the base has no rust it looks like it did now in the pics , if anyone can tell me Thanks HH Jim

I use neoprene gloves when digging in cold wet areas. our local drug mart had them for $4.99 a pair.

I use a custom program on my DFX for the beach where i use only 10 to 31 vids in block edit and a low sensitivity about 60 a raw 3 k never 15 k gets better depth, most of time a 30 and up vid is a pull tab so i dont dig them but when its warmer out side and i can stay longer on the beach i change that i learned that from crackbadger and pulltabking i found this at a school yard with the same program it hit at +24 vid i thought it was a nickle 14k gold 2 colors heart and neckless !

Your crucifix looks similar to the ones that adorn the lids of caskets for Catholic funeral masses. After the service they are usually given to a family member. I have several.

I thought it was Catholic there's a hole on the top side to hook it to a chain

What size is it? If it is small, say an inch long or so, it came off of a Rosary.
