18K gold Italian bracelet. I was sitting on a towel when I was about 12. Stuck my hand in the sand and felt something metal. Pulled it up and Wahlah!, gold. :evil:

I've been to the beach two or three times in my life and don't remember finding anything valuable.

Edit: Not trying to be a smartass. Voila is the correct spelling of what you were trying to say.

From dictionary.com
voi·là ( P ) Pronunciation Key ( vwä-lä )
interj.
Used to call attention to or express satisfaction with a thing shown or accomplished: Mix the ingredients, chill, and voilà! a light, tasty dessert.

Wahla, walla, etc are phonetic spellings of the word, but are not correct.

My own wallet... left it in my pocket when I went in the water, it came out, floated around, and washed up later.

A gray whale, pods of dolphins, baby seals, etc.

I'd much rather watch dolphins than find an old dirty bracelet.

You're supposed to say it with a "w" sound?
