Hot Streak Continues

[Compass]

Was out of town this weekend but tried the beach when I returned to take advantage of the good tides. Got to the beach at 3:00 am and after several minutes of detecting it felt that my record string of great hunts was going to end with a thud. However, I found a pocket of targets which, surprisingly,  yielded more jewelry than coins. It was pretty dark out so I really wasn't sure what I had until I got home. However, one ring felt pretty smooth, seemed heavy enough and looked pretty good when I switched on my headlight:

Several nice surprises when I got back. The small earring below the (14K) gold ring is a half gram of 10K. The sunglasses are Tiffany & Co but I dinged up the lenses from my scoop. There are 3 silver items and the feather pendant isn't stamped but holds up to 18K acid. (?) The light colored polished stone was in a rusty wire spring cage which I discarded.

The past month and a half have been unusually good for me detecting-wise and I feel incredibly blessed. A lot of it is luck but I do think that being retired has given me the time to learn my hunting grounds and detectors a little better as well as giving me more flexibility to detect where and when I want. GL&HH!

Good Job Compass, Beautiful gold! And Amen to the above!

I wouldn't be surprised your Tiffany glasses have some gold in those frames!  GaryC/Oregon Coast

One would think so being T & Co but,apparently not. They aren't quite as high end as I would have thought either but if I replace the lenses they would be in decent shape and I'm sure someone would want them.

Nice pile of loot Compass. Congratulations on the Silver and Gold. The more you use your detector you develop new skills that will boost your finds. Keep them coming.

Thanks Mike, I'm definitely finding more small targets including chains this year.

You may be able to polish out the scratches if not too deep -- a lot of plastic polishes at auto parts stores.  You might even get someone behind the counter who can recommend one for the job (but don't bank on it ).
