Third time out to the beach with the Minelab Excalibur II (Daytona Beach). Found my first piece of jewelry, a silver plated elephant charm. These are supposedly good luck charms that were popular during the mid 20th century, so that is a good omen for future finds. The next find is a complete mystery found close to the surf. Had a strong signal and dialed the discriminate all the way too the right and still a good tone, so I don't think this piece has any iron. I have no idea what it is or what it is made out of. Seems very light weight for its size. Anyone have any idea what it is?

Cool elephant
 
Looks like a piece of Aluminum casting..jmho..............HH
 
Thanks Andre and Greg. Aluminum casting explains the light weight. Well, that is no longer a mystery. Learned something before 6:30 am, a good start for the day.
 
Glad to help and Welcome to the "Net", can't wait to see more of your finds...........................HH
