    Found some GOLD today !

    Got off work early today and meet up with Ryan and hunted a near by park . Ryan had found gold last week at this location so we thought we would give it another try . Lots of trash and some clad found , $4.74 .
    After a good two hours I had a mixed signal , +20 to +6 . I dug down about 3 inches and saw GOLD ! I is a sweet 14K gold bracelet that weighs 12.43 grams ! It has a San Francisco cable car pendent on it . The other find was a 1941 S wheat cent almost on the surface .

    Nice hit on the gold bracelet. I can't believe how good wheaties look out there. In Ct they look like they were doused in acid when they come out of the ground.
