Good morning on the beach, except for the other MDers.....who felt it necessary to walk over and start searching the areas I was working. I thought I was on my way to a nice payday with this necklace.....it was marked 10K and weighed in at 25 grams. Then I cleaned it and noticed the color coming off. A quick acid test and I was saying a few choice four letter words. The gold earring turned out to be junk also. :dontknow

Hag, that necklace sure looks like the real thing...as does the earring. Sorry that it turned out not to be.

I wish you the best in your next hunt.

I can only imagine what that may have looked like in the scoop and you scrambling to catch it before it slipped through the holes. I've been there. Keep plugging at it.

When those people start coming around just start talking to yourself and flailing your arms around.. If it does'nt scare them off at least it will make them think twice next time about moving in on the crazy guy.. Best of luck.

One way to look at it is the guy that bought it got ripped off and he doesn't even know it.
