    Gold and silver in one scoop!........

    Was water hunting again early this morning. Was chest deep when I heard this soft mid-tone. Checked my scoop and seen the gold bracelet and then noticed the sterling ear ring in the scoop with it. The ear ring has been there a while and the bracelet who knows? When I finished I checked the bracelet and could not pick it up on the machine. Many machines can't see fine gold. Checked the ear ring and got that same soft mid-tone. If I had not heard the ear ring and scooped there I would have missed the bracelet. What is the chance that one ended up being dropped right over the other? The bracelet is 14K and 12" long. Also picked up the LOVE pendant and a very old barrett from the old area of the lake. Sure was nice to see gold in the scoop!
