Cant give it up. Bundled up and hit dry sand dunes away from the water. Very old beach/park, that allowed camping in the 40'-50's Found my first gold, an old gold rope watch chain!!, in that area! also a 1941 Wheat penny, and some other junk! Just glad to be able to dig, beach sand is the last option, but away from the water/wet sand, cuz its like concrete:BangHead: Tomarrow will be the last of the "bearable" weather, before the deep freeze hits, so I will have to do it again:laughing7: 101_7089.JPG 101_7090.JPG 101_7087.JPG 101_7088.JPG

Still cleaning and looking, Mike. Clasp is marked Pat. pending. May have to have it looked at, has some weight though! Don't know when "marking" was required, on gold, but I suspect this is pretty old...................wish it could talk. I envision some old dapper dude sitting in the grove of shade trees, where I found it, while his family plays on the beach, did he lose the watch too? Hmmmmmmmm
Is it marked? Congrats!
