Decided to hunt a local beach today. Highlight of the day was a huge "gold" necklace that was about 7 inches down. It looked really good coming out of the sand, but it rang up as a penny signal, so I wasn't too excited. Turns out it's a brass necklace that sells for less than six bucks on eBay! Oh well, still a cool find!

Thanks, guys! Probably the biggest hunk of jewelry I've ever found. Very strange that someone would wear that necklace to the beach!
