First Gold Chain !!!

[salty dog]

I found my first gold chain yesterday evening !!!!!
I decided to go after work to a freshwater lake to do some detecting since I haven't been in a good while. And I sure am glad I did !
I started out with my Seahunter and wasn't doing too good, so I went and got my Ace 250. I started finding some clad and then I waded out knee deep.
I got one of those signals that I wasn't too sure of and decided to dig it anyway.
I sure was glad I did.
The chain and cross is 14 K and weights 11.9 grams.
I'm seriously thinking about water proofing my Ace.

Some time ago, a fellow posted on here how to waterproof a 250. He classified it as a six-beer job, but good for fresh water.

Thanks for viewing my post everyone. May you all have the same luck !
Bomber, it does have a makers mark. An F in a circle, which I looked up and it's for "Fuller, Geo. H. & Company".
This is one find I'll never forget.

You guys are killin' me! I'm ready to go dig the bottom of the Rainbow River with my hands!
Congratulations on a great find!

Wow nice chain. It is surprising what an Ace 250 can find sometimes. What I should say is some people look at it as a low end detector and wow, it finds goodies too. I have one and I can tell you it can do almost as much as its $1000 brother. So one starts to think wow, I have a machine that costs 4 times the other and find the same amount with it.......

Again, nice find.
