Color indicates 18k but no markings on it for some reason. Only found one. Don't drool too much. IMG_1394.JPG IMG_1393.JPG

Also found this cool but not karat gold bracelet. They are very new and sell for about $100 new.

Couldn't resist the humor on the pull tab I've seen red, blue and green ones before, but not a gold colored one. Bracelet is marked Kate Spade, New York.

Oh my GOOODDDD! Its beautiful. You need to get a special bezel made for it. Have you had it appraised? We should take it to Antiques Roadshow! Oh and the bracelet it cool as well.

Could you take a pic of the back-side of that gold pull tab? Also...could you put something next to it for size reference? (maybe like a silver Pabst bottle cap or roofing nail).

Yes, dug at the beach. Nice fluffy sand and an appraisal for the tab would be a good bet! BTW the bracelet was just lost, probably within the last 48 hours. I had hammered that exact piece of beach 2 days before finding it and it was barely under the sand.

Now days you actually have to check your pull tabs. They make gold, silver, platinum, ect pull tabs. I own a silver tab marked 925 for a necklace charm. And I know a few people from our club that wears them as well.
