But why can't it be real?

A lady asked me what I was finding one day as I was pulling the 6th pulltab out of the deep. I told her it was a solid gold relic of the past and was as priceless an artifact as one could imagine.

She said, "No, it's a pulltab." Then laughed.
I informed her that yes, to the untrained naked eye it was a pulltab. But to me it was a (insert heartfelt story of lost pulltabs of love here) and moved on.
I thought I heard her stammer a bit and ask, "Buh, buh, but what became of them?" as I moved on.

Nice Digs!

A nice bunch of finds. :thumbsup:

You are right about your nickel being a Phily mint piece. It is, however, NOT a world war II nick. We didn't enter the war until 1941. :icon_sunny:

Lol i asked couple of friends here with own actually big diamond rings,they all told me its not a diamond,but setting looks like silver got some marks on it,so we think its a nice size Cubic Zirconia .
Will get it check in J. store back on mainland.
Then i will post what kind of find its,for sure it made my heart stop for 2 sec when i saw it bling on me in the sand.
