Today I found my first ever gold. I stopped at a lot that a small carnavel was at just last week. Found a couple of nickels and 8 zinc cents. This is a big lot so was trying to stay where I figured the people that went to the site would have waked. I was using my Ace 150 set on jewelry and I get a ring tone and the target show as a ring. about 2 inches down. I scraped the gravel away and it shines at me. Wow :o I found a gold diamond cut robe chain 2.5 mm in diameter with a box clip. On the clip it is stamped 10cmex and right below that is G 140 it measure 28 inches long when stretched out. Can any one help in the hallmark ID? Coolest find so far. Will be going back next week to hunt the area some more. Happy Hunting all :thumbsup:

WTG very nice chain keep up the good work :thumbsup:
 
Awesome find! One would like to think the hallmark indicates 140 grams of 10k Mexican gold.
Take it to a jeweler and have it checked out.
 
Congrats on your first gold !!!!

Looks like you did it in style. That bracelet is very nice...

Well done...
