Ya never can tell...

After the last couple of hunts - 3 cent find on one and a 9 cent find on the next - I wasn't expecting much this morning but ya jes never can tell what you will find. I went back to the beach this morning and spent the first hour in the water about waist deep. Not one hit! Not even a pull tab! Sheesh. So I decided to go up on dry sand to dry off a little before I got back in my car and right off the bat I started hitting coins. Mostly pennies but occasionally I would find something a little higher. I even found a Canadian penny this morning. That's ok as long as I'm finding something I keep going. That is what I did, I kept going. And.....

I found a beautiful silver cross! The chain is not broken and it is just beautiful. It is Silver says 925 on the clasp and on the cross itself. I have no idea what the stones are. They have a slight blue tinge to them. I don't know what they are but it sure is a pretty find. All in all, I found $1.82 in clad, 1 Canadian penny and the cross. I'll take it! :wink:

I gotta say.... Today was great!

a clear blue topaz or --( hopefully) a aquamarine -- a much higher dollar stone--either way it still lovelty and without a broke chain---it was most likely taken off laid on the towel and they forgot it was there and dropped it out of the towel as they gathered up to leave afterwards.
