Hit a new woods spot thats finally free of snow :clapping:. Found a nice gold necklace half buried in the ground, VDI'd a solid 20. It passed the magnet test, I ordered an acid test kit to determine the karat. HH

This is the most unlikely place to find a gold necklace. Just a small piece of woods in a development. :dontknow:
