Small Gold But It's Gold!

Thought i'd make a hunt before tonight's meeting and I lucked out finding a small 1.2gr. 14KT. gold band in waist deep water. Not sure if it was a fresh drop of something the waves dislodged. Anyway I'm happy to find some of that elusive yellow metal!

Gold is gold! Nice one Les! I was planning on getting to a meeting and forgot all about, working all day, then making dinner. Next month I will make it! I do have to get over see the old gang.
