Hi :hello:,

Been some time since I have recovered any gold , but I keep goin' :headbang:

This morning I took one, long, lingering look at the laundry load...grabbed the GT and went out the door :walk:


Got to the beach just at a nice low tide; hunted 2 hrs. on muddy, rocky flats near the shore line ( love those rocky areas!). Heard a nice low tone and recovered a large, pretty 14 K hoop earring.

A few clads followed before I left for home..and that laundry load ::)

Here's some pics

Thanks for looking

Lorraine

Nice gold find! I find so many of the hoop earrings that are just plated. It would be nice to find a nice fat gold one like you did.

I find a lot of gold earrings that are hollow inside..very light. I think this was must be solid.
