Hi all, I haven't posted a today's find in a while.
I did a little beach hunting, something I don't often do. first Target of the day, submerged with weight belt, snorkel and mask, when I pulled it from the scoop I assumed it would be plated but then I recalled the numbers and low tone and usually plated read High, only has maker mark no karat stamp. next I look for signs of wear around the hole and corners,none to be seen, and it just had the look. got home did a rub, 10 karat 14 karat 18 karat acids didn't touch it, 22 karat acid made it disappear in a few seconds Yahoo!:headbang: I got a gold Trifecta on this beach, 14k synthetic emerald ring and a nice 14k bracelet, rather unusual design, it really only gives a signal from the Central part and the clasp,
Didn't really ever test detecting chain until recently I am amazed at how hard it is to get a signal from them I searched a long time for the chain that must have gone with the crucifix I marked the spot and will return with 5 inch coil.
I guess going for the old stuff isn't the only exciting digs.
Thanks for looking and happy Hunting everybody.

Now that is an awesome pile of pirate yellow!! Thanks for posting, it keeps the blood pumping! Very exciting....go get some more!!
 

That emerald ring would have given me heart palpitations. Actually of I pulled up all three of,those on the same hunt, I'd probably need emergency care. Nice hunting.

You should start wearing all of that incredible gold stuff. You will look like a Sun God at your metal detecting club meeting. Your finds could start a movement.
