This weekend has been all about tot lots and school playgrounds. I've never done well in either but it just felt great to get out and learn my new Cortez. Yesterday I was out for around four hours and returned home with five dollars in clad and a couple of junk rings. Today, I only had an hour or so so I hit a recreation center close to home. Lots of teens were there when I arrived, so I almost left, but then they moved on and I had the playgrounds nearly to myself. Picked up a squashed penny, a couple of dimes and not much else. As I was making my last pass through the center of the playground, I got a jumpy, signal that means something close to the surface. Swiped the sand and saw the glint of gold, and pulled out this beauty of a necklace. Each of the links in the necklace is a tiny fish. No marks on it but I could tell by the weight and the color that this was the real thing. Tested it when I got home and it hit the top of my 18k Mizar, so its either 18k or maybe even 22k, and weighs in at 12.1 grams. My FIRST gold necklace and my first good playground find.

Congrats!! I have been eyeing a Teroro myself I keep noticing they seem to bring up great finds a lot.
 
Susan,
That is a great looking necklace and the fact it is 23K only makes it that much nicer.

Congrats.
