[Just when I thought I couldnt get excited about a find after finding the gold coin, I took some detecting friends Debbie and James to the spot I found, they did very well lots of relics and they each got 2 old copper coins, 2 were def. king george coppers which are rare to find in Mo. and I was very happy for them, I found 3 more compacts and my heart was racing we opened them there but all were empty , then I got a hit on my DFX Debbie was near me and she saw me digging and came over to help at 9+ in. she puts her hand into the hole and pulls out the bracelet, we were so excited the bracelet is awsome probably homemade. But to find that had my heart pumpimg as much as when we found the gold coin, I love detecting!! jd  |

Holy $*!?#..j.d. !
Man...I live for finds like that bracelet!
Un-believable...it looks like a jeweler in training made it.
It's a little rough looking...but I love it..and the imagination behind it's fabrication..wonderful.
Looks as if some of the love tokens busted off at the link..perhaps poor solder..or years in the earth..expanding and contracting.
I think solder flux that might still remain in the soldered area..leaches out and somehow weakens the spot soldered.
When I've found rings at the beach..often they are separated right where they were sized..and the joint is discolored in relation to gold or silver of the jewelry piece. Just a theory..I'll bet J.T.F2002 could address that.
Anyway..it is truly unique and one of a kind..really something.
Get my reply last night?
You are on some kind of roll..dude. Congratulations are definately in order!

That is one of the coolest bracelets I've seen, although it must have looked hideous when worn.
