Hit my local park here in San Pedro Ca and after about 2 hours of clad, I thought I hit pay dirt. Right as I started to dig, I said to myself, "another damn pull tab.." then I saw the chain. It had 14K ITALY on the clasp but wasn't as heavy as I expected. Stoked, I threw it in my bag and not 10ft away I hit another target being a bracelet showing 9.25 and a hallmark. The chain read 8-10 on my X-Terra 705 and the bracelet read between 16-22.
I took it to a couple jewelers and both said probably not real as far as the chain goes. It's got some oxidation spots too.
The bracelet had some peeling of what looked to be a silver coating����
