My first GOLD...

[hellfirebluefish]

I have searched my yard several times over, always finding something new...today I found 2 clad nickles 1956 D wheat, a bullet, and this GOLD bracelet. I just about had a heart attack when i saw it just under the surface.

Too bad, looks like pot metal. Better than no braclette!

A few weeks ago I got fooled on a fake gold bracelet as well

Take this as a learning.

when you find Avon or any fake jewelry (outside your yard) a park, beach etc. that's a good clue that there is more around. I found and Avon ring at a park in February, by the end of April I had three different gold items out of that same park. I went back several times - probably 6 different times hammering the park at the spots where I thought there could be more.

boy was I right! 2 class rings and a necklace.

good luck, and fake jewelry is good if it leads to the real stuff!

- also keep a junk jewlery collecction, you will be amazed how the stuff adds up!
