*Solved* Interesting Thing-a-ma-bob....

[Hmmm?]

Found on the beach in New Jersey.
At first I thought it looked like a small hand grenade? Perhaps a bottle of some sort?
It could be just a very interesting rock?
Appears to have some sort of cross-linear pattern on the surface, which has been worn by the surf.
Texture is stone-like..
Weight is heavier then a stone of that size..

Thank you for your help..
Terry

Re: Interesting Thing-a-ma-bob....

That is a nice thing-a-ma-bob.
I have not seen one like that in a long time.
Most that I have seen are a bit smaller,
unless they are larger.
One thing rest assured,
it is either this or that, and that is a fact.
You can be very proud of that find.
I've known people who hunted all their lives
and never found one like that.
You know, if it was easy
everybody would be out getting them.
Congratulations on your super find.
Happy hunting and
remember to drink your milk.​

Did it read of any metals on your detector?

Hi liqui...

Yes, the detector can't decide whether it's Iron or Silver..
It kept jumping back and forth.

Is it magnetic? If not, it appears to these eyes as a sedimentary rock.

It is magnetic... not strong but somewhat.

No need for the not worthy icon, I was just kidding around when I saw your avatar and then saw the man hands. Welcome to Tnet and good luck in your quest to find treasures. Your find does look like sedimentary rock to me as well.

Re: Interesting Thing-a-ma-bob....

Yes, quartz rock will register as metals. But I think, steel registers on my detector as iron / silver. What detector did you run with? Those that run with that model may be more of an assistance on you here. If it's heavy, there may very likely be metal in there too. I'll tell you, NJ beaches are full of metal conglomerate mixtures of all kinds. I know that, personally. It does have a grenade shape to it, very interesting. When in doubt, you could always go to the airport or veterinary hospital, as I did, and see what you may be holding with a simple X-ray. Let me know what you find out, good luck!!!

Thank you Hmmm2
if you need it, i to got your back.
you can trust me when i say, its granite with quartz veins in it.
you may already know but, a prospectors tool is a magnate on a string.
pass it by the granite to see if it has magnetite in it. if it swings to the rock , thats a good sign.
have a look at these pictures.
