Some unusual finds at the beach

Well-known member
Been on the west coast of Fl for the last 2 years taking care of my Dad. Hardly get any waves and basically its a shelling environment.
I detect and shell simultaneously !!! I have found these nuggets encrusted with sand and crud. CLR did a good job of dissolving it.
The 2 on the left were tested and read 14k Top right didnt test to be anything but holding a good gold color. maybe very lower karat.
The pea size one I recently found by going through some old finds. It was black but heavy for its size. After a tumble, a beautiful gold.

Now my question is, how did this stuff get to the beach ??? Im thinking cremations but I know(personally) funeral parlors pull out gold teeth.
The pieces on the left dont look like they have been rolling in the ocean. So whatcha think ?? How did they end up on the beach ???
