Silver and Gold in the Same Hole!

[West Jersey Detecting]

I am not a big fan of jewelry hunting, preferring to go relic hunting or coin shooting, but cabin fever set in so I ran up to the local school with my 10 year old and the puppy. The ground was frozen solid so i was only digging surface finds. My son gave me advice and said, "try over there by the taller grass, dad"

I am glad I did! The ground was softer and I pulled out this beautiful David Yurman Star of David made out of .925 silver and .750 (18K) gold!! It weighs in at 5.6 gms. I googled it and it sells at Sacks for $275!!

I am going to get a chain for this so I can wear it myself!!

Can I borrow your son for my next MD outing??

Silver and gold in the same spot is almost too good to be real.

Nice reward for being brave enough to MD in NJ in January.

Here is a nice song you can sing the next time you are out with your son. From Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Silver, silver and gold
Silver and gold, silver and gold
Ev'ryone wishes for silver and gold
How do you measure its worth?
Just by the pleasure it gives here on earth.
Silver and gold, silver and gold
Mean so much more when I see
Silver and gold decorations
On ev'ry Christmas tree.
Silver, silver and gold
Silver, silver and gold
Silver and gold

Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Wise men brought gifts to the mange I'm told
Mary was humble to see
Shepherds and kings there on bended knees
It's silver and gold, silver and gold
Feeling the world with their lives
Silver and gold how they shimmer on ev'ry Christmas night
On ev'ry Christmas night
