We went up to Irvine Regional Park for an end of the year school picnic and I got a couple hours of hunting in. Huge park with a lot of California history, I wish I had some more time to check things out and hunt in different areas but I enjoyed the time and area that I hunted. Found about $4.00 in clad and a couple of interesting finds. A cool original Ford key H60, a religious medalion (St. Benedict), an old large bullet casing (68 on the bottom), and a heart stopper.....a gold plated bracelet. At first I thought it was real as it came out looking really good but after further review I believe it to be plated. Thanks for looking, enjoy the pics.

Very interesting finds today Shark27! :notworthy:

Have you checked the silver cross closely for silver hallmarks? :icon_scratch:

Sure looks right to me! :icon_thumright:

wow! very nice finds! i like the ford key for some reason :tongue3: ;D

I agree. I like the writing on the back as it states "Family of Fine Cars". I thought it would be much older but apparently the H60 on it shows it is for an early 90's model....unless my quick research is wrong.

I thought so too...I did check but the top portion is mission and I believe that's where the hallmark would have been. It has the look and feel if you know what I mean.
