I have been having a blast with my CTX. This machine is powerful and it really seems to pick up tiny targets. I have found a few rings so far. I silver and a few junkers plus the usual clad. This morning I hit on two gold targets. The first was this earring. It is stamped 14k. I think the diamonds are real. The second one really surprised me. This tiny chain. It is stamped 10k. I also found this nail or spike I am not sure what it is. I looks to be made from brass. It is pretty heavy. Any clues? These were all finds from the beach on the East Coast!

Being on the coast it is most likely a bronze nail used on old ships. Washed up from an off shore wreckage site?
 
I'm not sure. I wasn't on a beach that is known for wrecks and I have found some bronze coins before at the beach. They were more of a brownish color. This thing has the shimmer of gold almost, but it is not quite shiny enough to be gold. I think is may be a nail, just not sure.
