Popular Post Bryan Posted October 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 24, 2020 i was showing a co-worker a minelab Go-Find 22. he knows nothing about detectors and was interested in how they work. i was explaining the difference between the four symbols on the display when a lengthy conversation ensued about detectors in general. he was amazed to hear about all the things they can find and have found for people and the technology inside the machines. suddenly he declares, "hey, if you know all this stuff can you tell if something is actually gold? i bought a used car and found something stuck in the floor boards. give me 2 mins and i'll run and grab it." now, this co-worker is a young college kid just getting started in life. money is tight, apartment is small. so when he handed me this and i showed him how to check it, explained the karat system, gold spot price, grams, and got it weighed, he was VERY happy. made my whole day. item = 14K pendant + 14K chain both from Kay Jewelers. 10.7g @ $35.71 per gram as of yesterdays spot price -bryan 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On re-examining the pictures, I will throw my vote to meerkats also. The front legs are to long and the tail not big enough for a roo! Thanks for the "poll update". But it is still fuggly!
