Struggled today for 6 hours before I saw the glint of yellow. The target had a weird sounding tone, kind of trashy but the numbers seemed good, on the third scoop (lots of shells to dig through) I lift the scoop and see a chain dangling off the side of the scoop. Glad the religious medallion was inside the scoop for a counterbalance, otherwise I'd have lost the chain. Medallion is marked 14k, chain tests good at 14k. What bothered me was this is one of those continuous chains, no clasp so I was worried it wasn't gold... the feel and the weight was right and it tested good.
13 grams total weight
GL and HH everyone!

I was water hunting when I got the chain and was using the 3030. Matter of fact, the 3030 got my last two nice finds....
