No gold or silver today, but i did score a Rolex *UPDATE* It's a FAKE....rats...
another beach hunt today dscooped up $10.52 in clad (5 of it I had to put into the meter) got 2 foreign coins a little novelty coin 8 earrings, with two pairs, all junk. 5 bracelets, all junk. And a Rolex watch from the water. It had been there for a while. It does have a few drops of water in it. Does not run
thought maybe I could send it in and have it repaired if it didn't cost to much. Here are the pics.

Done some research on line and found several references that one surefire way to spot a fake is by the case back. If it has a clear case back, so that you can see the internal working of the watch, IT IS A FAKE. Rolex NEVER made a watch that has a clear case back.
Mine has a clear back

Oh well it was an exciting find either way.
