Our local metal detecting club received a call from a gentleman, in regards to a medallion that he lost in his yard 7 years ago. Eight of us rolled over there this morning. It was a large yard but he knew the general area he lost it. Of course we did not find it there. However a general roving search did find it.

I did not find it. Club President, Charlie found it.

Spanish cob with 14k hammerhead shark bezel.

I thought it was a cool item... gold + cob = awesome (not to mention the shark).

The owner and his wife were thrilled.

Thanks for looking and best of luck to you in the field.

That would have been a super beach find...but a happy ending for the original owner always is better.

WOW! That is a way cool looking pendant. It took him seven years to consider finding you guys? I guess he wanted to make it a challenge for ya'll. Great job on the rescue and return. A credit to the community every one of you!:icon_salut:

Great job. Excellent representation of the hobby. Sure would have been nice to find that randomly and have it be a keeper because that thing is SWEET!
