I found two interesting pieces of unmarked high K gold jewelry this weekend on a Treasure coast shipwreck beach. Both pieces of gold were found in the same area on a beach that I have found many Spanish 1715 fleet artifacts and treasure coins.
The dark stone is held in place with fleur de lis prongs and has natural lines that only appeared after the stone had dried out on the long drive home.
I had planned to search locally for modern tourist droppings but decided it was less hassle hunting in the daytime on the Treasure coast beaches. You never know unless you go on the Treasure Coast, these two pieces of gold and a bottle cap were my only finds. The last time I was on the Treasure Coast I found a blackened piece of Spanish silver in someones trash pile in the parking lot at Corrigans, maybe I am getting my Treasure Coast mojo back?

Wow,Gary that's something!
 

Arr, now that be treasure. Was the bottle cap in as good as shape?:laughing7:
I think that these little pieces are BANNER worthy so I am going to pull the trigger on the banner button.
ZDD
 

Yup, me to I nominated for banner find as well. You have got me wanting to get back to the treasure coast! Good job!
 

And wow! That beats my $5 in clad today:). Really great finds!
 

Wow.. Great find. I'm hitting the treasure coast tomorrow and Sunday. First time out at the beach since I'm a nob my first real day out. Hoping to find at least a penny lol
 

jpmccutc -if you are going to be in the area, be sure to come to the Cookout @ Wabasso @ The Penwood Motor Lodge on Saturday!
 

Where at? I'm staying in Melbourne beach. I'm not too familiar with the area over there. What time?
 

The festivities will begin...well, they have probably already begun, but lunch will be noonish. True tales, modified truths and damn lies will continue till the rhum is gone.
The motel is about 1/2 mile N of the Wabasso Causeway Bridge on the west side of US 1. Wabasso is on the south side of Sebastian.

Sweet gold finds there!
 

Ok sweet . I'm staying at the Hilton. I had some points to use so I figured why not break the md in good. Hopefully I will see you there

Maybe 20 miles south of you on US 1. Wabasso is just south of Sebastian.
