My first ever gold

GMJG · Apr 11, 2009

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

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:

CONGRATS on your 1st AU :thumbsup:

And think, you didn't have to go to the beach to get it! Carnival sites are aw some. Shake from the rides and change out front of the 'joints'. HH

Congratulations!! Looks very nice!
The only necklaces I have found have either been silver or fake!
I found a bracelet in the wood chips that is gold but has 925 stamp on it that I believe is a silver stamp
I dunno? I should probably post it and get opinions from the crowd here.
