Popular Post mn90403 Posted January 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2018 It has certainly been a while since I've had a ring and yesterday I got 3! As it turns out they are not that great but it means that the energy is back in the waves. The pan has water moving in it again. Get back out there fellas and gals if you are on the West Coast. The first ring was the titanium. It was just a low, low piece of aluminum sound in the sand where 3 hours before it was high tide with some larger waves of long interval. This set me to a grid pattern where I found some tarnished clad and eventually about 30 feet away another ring. It was so clean I thought it was gold. I was in one of those places with people around you put it in the pouch quickly. Same sound but in the gold range. (I think now it is not gold because it is so light and there is no mark but it feels like white gold.) It was getting late and I needed to walk a mile to get to my car so I swung on the 'line in the sand' that was holding targets and just before I got done back at my starting spot I hit the silver. It is about 7 grams so it give that great high sound on the CTX. I was doing a bit of 'don't dig the pennies' sort of hunt to save my back but I still ended up with $5 in change and a funky little brass/string bracelet. Three hours well spent.

Nuke em Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Nice finds. As for the possible Gold . Test it on the ET and also check the weight . I reckon 6 g if 9 or 10 k and a low medium tone , if Gold. Now am i right ? I think its white Gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Nuke em This is one of the lightest wedding bands I have ever found. It is less than half the weight a gold ring should be but it is also thinner so the only thing left to me is a scratch test and my kit is in storage. I can get it shot with a gun if I want ...

schoolofhardNox Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Definitely have it shot if you have access to an XRF. Would love to have one of those handy. It would be interesting to see what it is made of. I'm just about to get back to the beaches here on the east coast. Starting to get antsy lol Nice hunt!

mn90403 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 A local coin dealer is very good at shooting anything I bring into the store. They enjoy my stories and I buy some things from them now and then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
