Short hunt on good ol' soccer field today...

Wasnt feeling well today, but figured I would go hit the field anyway for a couple hours..
Started where I left off the other day, and hadnt gone 10 ft when the MXT sounded off.. VDI of 4-6, depending on the sweep angle, and 6 inches down..
Dig the plug and swept the plug.. Sure enough, it is in there.. Start picking away at the dirt when a small chunk broke off and out pops about 3" of gold chain! I carefully dug through the roots and dirt, and finally had it out in one piece.. 22" long, and although it is gold, it is only gold filled... Oh well, I always like finding jewelry, even the costume stuff..
It is marked 1/20 14k GF- I guess that means that for every part of gold, it is 20 parts something else? Never saw the 1/20 thing before, all my GF stuff just says ""k GF...

ALso found a Sue B. Anthony dollar, 3 quarters, two dimes, a nickel, and 3 tokens.. One says "Charter Member" and Partners Club/PGA on it, another has a nude woman on the front (boobs) and says "Heads I win", and the back is a butt and "tails you lose".. I will have to clean that one up, it is cute..
The other just says "GOLF" and on the other side "no monetary value".... I think that is a ball marker for golfing..

So, not a bad day again.. I hope I feel well enough this week to spend a good 4 hours on this field... I have found so much good stuff, I just know that there has got to be more..

HH all!

If I remember right the 1/20 is the amount of fill or thickness of gold on the item. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong.
