All Treasure Hunting
I took my son out to escape the doldrums of being home all weekend. I strapped my mini sidekick onto my chest and walked down to the local beach. It's impossible for me to walk at the beach without scanning the ground a little. The tide was out and I was able to spot this bracelet right off the bat poking out of the mud. It's marked AAC 14K with some kind of super tiny mark inside the clasp. I really want it to be real. The fact that it has zero corrosion and was in the salt water is promising. I can't tell by the weight because the pieces are kind of hollowed out which would make it a little lighter than one would think. Real or fake I would love to hear peoples opinions on it.

On Sunday I got out for one hour to do some detecting. I found three wheat pennies and about 50 cents in clad. Being out in the sun digging a couple measly holes felt glorious.

I hope everyone is doing well out there!

Congrats on finding the gold with your little good luck charm strapped to your chest :occasion14:
 

Looks like a nice bit of treasure to me - congrats! :occasion14:

Nice bracelet - wish I knew more about jewelry and could be of help. Regardless, sounds like you had a pleasant trip out with your boy. Way to start him treasure hunting young! Congrats!

Congrats! Good Eye ��!!! Invest in one of those gold test acid kits that come with a small scratch stone ($20 on Amazon) and a good jewelers loop? It really does work and simple to use. The bracelet looks Promising. I have found enough gold and silver to get quite a lot of use out of both. :goldtrophy:

He's now an official T'Hr! (I think that's how it's abbreviated!?)
