HAPPY DANCE HAPPY DANCE HAPPY DANCE

[gold fever pete]

Hello All, First thanx for looking. Went to the beach today with my buds Chris and Ross. The surf was angry and the waves coming in at 4 second intervals. My pocket was full of change I had walked from the pier and had gone about 3 life gaurd towers in the dry.. It had rained so the sand was packed and easy to walk on. The tide was up when I started and now it was going out so I hit the wet and water for a bit. Zig Zagging up and down the wet sand. I was using my CTX (man I love that machine) when I got a hit. It read 40, 41 40. I thought it was going to be another penny. When I looked in my scoop I thought I had found another foreign coin. ( it was I just didn't know what) After awhile when I got to an unmanned tower I pulled all the change out and my loupe. I could not believe what I had found. I focused on 1/4 ORO and I knew then it was gold...

happy dance happy dance happy dance. This is my second gold coin. The first was a Panda from China, and it was a 10th of an ounce. Thanks for looking. GFP When I wrote what it was the front slash didn't show.. It is not 14 ounce. lolAttached to this post:

The way I have it pictured is that it was in a bezel and fell out. The person who was wearing it on a necklace probably didn't even notice it gone until it was toooo late. Even then it was in the water and gone..

Was the Beach anywhere near where illegals may be coming ashore? They may have something like that with them on the beach. Gold is good anywhere in the world.
Peso's not so much
