Gold Chain with Gold Coin Pendant Recovered and Returned to Owner!
When I’m out metal detecting, the number one question I get is “What is the most valuable thing you’ve found?”, well as of this morning I have a clear answer.
Three days ago I noticed a Facebook post about a gold chain lost on July 4th at Pope Beach, Lake Tahoe. Lesson to everyone out there, if you lose something valuable and metal DON’T post the location you lost it at—the Sand Pirates will find it and keep it!
I contacted the person who lost the chain and I offered to help find it. After a series of exchanges we coordinated a meeting at the gold chain loss location—8:30am this morning at Pope Beach. Thank goodness he chose to meet me, only with his onsite precise identification of where he went swimming, allowed this recovery to happen.
It took two hours of searching underwater with my XP Deus 2 metal detector and Blu3 Nemo dive system to find this gold chain and gold coin pendant.
Needless to say, the owner was happy!
