Default 2nd Day Out For The Year And Already Gold And Silver...YAY

Well I am a very happy camper. Went out today with my dad to the tiny local beach. (it is the only place I can Dig Everywhere Else is still frozen) Got a nice hit and started to dig. Saw a peice of the chain in the hole and got excited. Started to pull and say the ring. Then the bezzel. I said YES so loud I think I woke the dead. The ring is stamped 14k and the emerald is real. The bezel is stamped 14k and there is some kind of a coin in it. And the chain is stamped 925 Italy and is super long almost 31 inches..Also found $1.36 in Clad and a plastic indian. Man I hope the rest of the year goes this well..Also this is only my 2nd time using the new quattro..
The ring, pendant, and chain where all together and the clasp was still clasped. So someone must have left it on there towel last year and dropped it.

Great finds, GF! The coin must be special to be in a setting like that. Let us know what it is when you find out!

Somebody was very unhappy when they got home and discovered them missing. I'll have to think back on it.....maybe it was me. Where'd you say I lost those again?
