Sun Baker Silver Ring

[mn90403]

It is not often you hear a target on a wave breaking beach and you look down and you see a ring but that is what happened today.  I was working one of my normal beaches but today the wind was blowing offshore and the tide was ebbing with a relatively high low tide.  This ring was in a steep section and probably would not have been there after the next wave.  A trough is there and maybe worth a try when the tides become more defined.

This is what it looked liked after it cleaned up.  After I scooped it I wished I had taken a picture but the little waves would have moved it and I may have lost it.  I didn't want to 'stage it' to show what it looked like when I fist saw it.

 

These were the 'dirty' pictures.

 

These are the total finds for the 3 hour session.

Nice ring!!! Pretty good haul for a few hours. I see the dreaded bobby pin on the bottom left, Man those things can sound really good. Good job.

Great hunt and it looks like you found my house key.

Just kidding about the key, but a very nice ring.

Good luck on your next outing.

I really appreciate it when I find something that is right on top,,,no digging makes my elbows happy !

And if it's a ring OK , in the pouch !

I've been out since then on a couple of different beaches and found 1 penny on one beach and less than that on another beach so yes the big wave sets are too far apart and the trough that is there because of the mixed tides are not kicking anything up for me.
