Vacation finds from florida
The wife an I went down to ft. Lauderdale & miami we did some detecting at beaches in both city's an also hit quite a few play grounds. The wife found a silver & diamond earring on miami beach, I got all my best finds at playgrounds my notable finds are, the 18k gp chain and lion pendant even though its plated i was stoked to find it thats my first "gold" necklace find. Then I found the little .925 person pendant and the .925 ring both with pink stones, the little heart looks to be a broken earring or something I thought it was gold but couldn't confirm untill last night when I got home an when I acid tested it I found it to be high quality 14k "18k barley eats it" there's no markings but its gold so ill take it! I also found my first 50 cent piece along with my first $20 dollar Jamaican coin its a 2001. I found a car wash token at the same spot, we pulled about $70 bucks in clad just from 1 playground alone it was insane how many targets were there thats were all my best finds came from. Metal detecting was a huge success and the trip was a blast!

Total clad I found

Quarters $22.25 Dimes $11.60 Nickels $4.15

Found in a field while metal detecting, I am not an expert so am not sure if its a modern knock off of an Egyptian Revival style pendant or what its worth
