Gold in the scoop

[jcobb]

Took the girl friend and my little boy to Galveston on a spontaneous trip.

About 20 pull tabs and $1 worth of clad then up comes this little 14K pendant.

Taking a break from the sun and enjoying a piña colada and some live music on the beach!

Thanks for looking!

Does the pendant read, "26.2?" If so, it may be marathon/triathlon related...? Very cool and valuable! Sub

Extremely nice find Amigo ! Yes I think marathon memorial nails it down ! I don't remember when they run Chicago , but If indeed the
date coincides for the running of it - there ya go !

Thanks man! It weighs 2.5g it was about 4-5 inches down about ten feet from the high tide line in the wet sand.
It is a mini dog tag

Using the AT Pro on the beach gives a lot of chatter, but ground balancing the heck out of it helps a lot.
When you get a signal you can def tell the difference between a target and just random chatter

The pendant was a solid 48
