9/12/09 beach finds 18k necklace

[wwwtimmcp]

the wind died down in the afternoon so I headed to the beach. I found a very heavy 9.4 grams 18k religious medal attached to a gold plated chain which is very heavy too. the religious medallion has a small garnet in it too, plus my usual 2lbs of sinkers, a 1977 dime and nickle, a zippo lighter with russian writing on it,and an odd iron piece ?... oh and a pa's level lure.

happy hunting to all.

p.s. boy I had to dig for the necklace it was over 6" deep and under a flat rock 3" thick. I thought it was a sinker with line attached until I broke the surface, visability was zero.

WTG It was well worth all that work to recover that kind of find. With my luck I'd be 7" down under a 4" rock and get a pull tab

spartacus53 , been there and done that. I even dig signals that disapear. must be a really rusty crud that falls apart in the digging process.
you guys just starting: keep digging. the goodies will come.
I did the happy dance all the way back to my truck. some guy today asked me if I ever found anything good. his eyes just about popped when I told him. his kid now wants a metal detector.

me too bravowhiskey. it has a poseidon style pitchfork, a wing,a lighthouse, all over a globe.
"noceaon" below it, but I know it is russian but that is sort of what it looks like to me.
