[QUOTE="Tahnee, post: 679019, member: 25867"] Hi there, Was having some fun treasure hunting on the beach and found this today. Did a SG test and it come up about 17, vineagar test and scratch test and they had good indications of gold. Maybe gold? It’s about 1.5 gram. Picture beside a 5c piece for size reference. It’s a heavy little bugger for its size. The thing is, it seems to have a very fine metal wire/link embedded into it. Possibly it was made into jewellery? Not really sure… Any help would be great. If it is gold, didn’t expect to find my first little nugget on the beach 🤨 [ATTACH type="full"]13480[/ATTACH] Cheers, Tahnee [/QUOTE]
