Default Stupid find

Well I should not say that it is that stupid but I was doing a beach late yesterday when the Sovereign detector nearly blew my ears out. I was going up and down the sand to the waters edge and a lot of sand had stuck to the top of the coil making it heavy. So I thought that I would swish the coil through the water to wash off the sand. I dug this at around 5" deep at around 12" into the water.

I think its Indian,Hindu or Hari Krishna.

I brought me no luck at the beach but it must of helped me in the stock market as my shares went up 32% today...lol

That is a neat find! Love those exotic religious medals.

Is it gold?

No it is not Gold but I have worked out that you wear it. Anyway it is starting to bring some luck in this direction so its going to have a space on the bookshelf. I just hope the Relatives do not think that I am turning into being a religious Nut case.

Now that's just cool, and cool story too. I have found many things just walking back to the car with my machine still on. I'd Google it and see if you can find out who that is in the picture, then you can tell people about it when you show it off.
