Wheaties and anything Brass has to be some gold there, I would camp out there for awhile.

Curious, why does brass improve gold chances?

Many beach items like snaps, buckles, lipstick tubs, compacts, brass rings, earings, beach tags, candy tongs..the list goes on. Brass on an old beach is a very good sign, along with silver, wheaties ..that there is Gold near...And this is in the water..

People who lost these also lost their gold
