Color indicates 18k but no markings on it for some reason. Only found one. Don't drool too much. IMG_1394.webpIMG_1393.webp

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

Love both of your finds.
 

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.
 

O no.....DEFINITELY 22k! Congrats on a very nice bracelet, makes ya wonder how something that big gets lost...but their loss-your gain...Ddf
 

We have several of them gold plated tabs, anything colored is seen as a hopeful next one really being gold
 

:laughing7: That's a good one!!!
 

I love gooooold Pull tabs
 

I get fooled by colored pulltabs constantly!! Always gets the blood pumping
 

Nice find on the bracelet, and to think I have been throwing all of my gold pull tabs away !
 

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).
 

Nice bracelet, but got to have that tab! Just too nice! You sure that it isn't 24k??? Now I am on the hunt for my own gold tab, LOL. Congrats on the bracelet!
 

The bracelet cost $98 new and it's 12k plated gold you might could sell it and make a lil money
 

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.
