Gold and silver finds in dry sand yesterday

Hi,

Worked the wet sand slope for 2 hrs; was finding only a couple of clads, and misc. "junk" so I moved up to the dry sand for the last hour.

Found a 1952 quarter, a 10K class ring ( 1931)....and an ornate religious medallion ( Miraculous Medal) all in dry sand .

Class ring weighs 6.29 gms. no stone..mostly gold .

The medallion looks to be very old....don't see this style these days, but maybe I just haven't looked in enough places; but it is so heavily tarnished so it is presently being electrolyzed...might or might not be silver ...we'll see later

Here's some pics

Thanks for looking

Lorraine
