I posted earlier in the shipwreck section and thought this may be of interest in the Beach and Shallow section too. 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. Earlier in the year I was on the Treasure Coast and found a blackened piece of Spanish silver in someones trash pile in the Turtle Trail parking lot, maybe I am getting my Treasure Coast mojo back?
