Gold on the last January day

I thought that January was going to be a bust, gold wise, as for most of the month I had been finding silver and junk, and not much of that either.

I decided to go back to a past productive beach and, after a couple of forays on two other beaches, that's where I headed.

There has been some erosion with walls along a lot of the beaches.
I detected from the base of the wall down to the water, in a parallel  grid pattern. 

There were lots of coins then a silver ring.

I got an ID bracelet about half way down the slope. I did not not think much of it at the time as I have found similar bracelets before and they have all been junk.

When I got home though I looked at it more closely and there it was...the 14k mark!

It weighs 23g.

I have decided to go back to that same beach on my next outing!



 This one is unmarked. I think it is plated.
