My first gold!!!

dochalpin · Oct 8, 2014

Got a faint repeating signal that I decided to dig.

Saw this in my plug.

Cleaned it up, did some research and found out that it's "Gold filled"! My first gold!!! :kingdances:

Congratulations! Is that the end of a fob?

I believe so! It's cool. I would've love to have found the rest of it.

Very cool find! Gold filled is much better than plated, hopefully the next one is solid!

Congrats!

Is there a hallmark on it? Looks might good for "gold filled"!

congrats on the shiny yellow metal, sure is nice to see that color when ya turn up the sod!

I agree with DirtyRob.
For as deep as it looks in the plug, I would think it would have some pitting on it. I'd test it... Congrats. on it either way- it's a cool find! :yes:

Research shows that E. IRA Richards and Co made Gold rolled and Gold filled Jewelry.
