Found this Wing Pin marked V10 10k ...believe it is 10k.
It was a good foot deep in the dry sand. I think it is a Delta Airlines service pin..looks to have 2 emeralds and a diamond. A lot of pitting on the backside so i wasn`t sure if it is real or not.... weighs 2 grams

also found $1.71 --the dollar bill i spotted in the sand.
2 hour hunt with my mom who only found 46 cents.
Beach was very clean...1 bottle cap and 1 pull tab in 2 hours swinging.

Pretty neat find. They must have worked for Delta for awhile to have earned a ticket like that.

Might be a 30 year service pin. Similar one online has the diamond with 2 emeralds for 30 years of service. But i can`t find one identical to this one.

Congrats on a nice find. Wonder how a pin like that got to the beach? Interesting to think of the possibilities. Congrats again and best of luck throughout the year.
