If you’re going to find a gold chain

It might as well be a big one. 32” and 80 grams. I haven’t had a day like this in a long long time. (Change that to ever)

Great find...........

I know I never thought I would find something like this.

And thanks for the banner vote, never found anything worthy of it till now.
So here I am sitting at work, wanting to go detecting instead.

Love this hobby.

Took a few more photos before the gold doctor tomorrow. Hope them stamps are real!
I am still in disbelief. I hope the year continues like this.

Man that’s huge! I’m surprised the dog didn’t run away with that. Milk bones for life and then some.

Well after getting back from the gold doctor I am happy, and must I say very happy to report that it was indeed all 14k. Now all I have to do is relies this doesn’t happen on every hunt. :hello2:

WTG Dude....I shoulda been there with you this time. Would have loved to seen the expression on your face. I'd say this is a BANNER find for sure. How bout it folks

Excellent find. The clasp shows it is a good chain.

Well thanks again for all the nice post. I haven’t been able to go back out and look for the missing Jesus from the crucifix, but am going out this weekend. My neighbor informed me that if I sold it for melt value I would burn in hell.

Such encouragement, huh? Oh well got to look anyway.
