Went to a school that I have been hunting for the last 3 years. In all that time I have dug over $400 dollars worth of clad, a couple of silver dimes and a few silver rings. Today I only had about 20 minutes to hunt so I broke out the detector and after a couple of pennies and a few nickles I found this gold braclet. I did not do the happy dance because I was in shock. I still was not sure it was gold because I could not see a mark, but when I took apart the clasp it was marked 14K! It weighs 11 grams. Not to shabby for my first ever gold. Pic is before cleaning.

Thanks for all the replies. I went over that area 4 times before but this time I was in "dig it all" mode.
Sure pays to do that.
