I believe this is a dungeon quest for the Iron Docks dungeon. Don't spend your time running around to all the lake/ocean areas like I did!

Found it atop of some cages, in the way towards the 3rd boss. It isn't a drop, but a gather item, and it appears very large in your minimap.
Figured it out! Since they're dailies the NPC's change! :) He showed up later and let me turn it in.

Description
Listen, I don't know how I got here, but I have it on good authority that there is an entire island made of shiny things and it's just off of the coast a ways. All we have to do is hop in the water and swim out there, then we can load up our pockets and swim back! I'm just going to rest up and do some stretching before heading out. Don't try and stop me!
