This might shock some of you ,but if I found an old silver dollar would tickle the hell out of me more than that gold chain did. I have found a lot bigger chains than this one,

Congrats Ron and good seeing you again this yr (2017) in Clearwater...Oh, by-the-way, just ordered a new sand scoop based on your ribbing about my broken, wired-together scoop. Perhaps it won't take me so long next time to retrieve my targets in 4 ft of water, some good (e.g., Thomas Sabo watch) and some bad (e.g., 8" candle). Larry

That is awesome. Congratulations.
We havent even got ours in the mail yet, and think to ourselves, we would be happy to just find anything. Our minds haven't even considered anything like that yet. When we do, I will make sure my wife videos my happy dance. might have to be careful though, as big as I am I might cause a tsunami. lol
