cuniagau Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I haven't been out much lately due to some uncomfortable tendonitis but I made it down to a beach this afternoon for low tide. The beach was sanded in and I wasn't expecting to much from the Impulse but just needed to "get out" of the house mainly. I had the beach pretty much all to myself with just a couple of surfers and a few walkers. I was running AM and basically default settings and just enjoying the beach. I dug several bottle caps so I knew that finding something good would be a crap shoot. The Impulse was hitting the lobster trap pieces pretty hard and I was getting a double beep on some pieces but not enough. LOL I got a good solid AM hit and switched to Tone mode and got the "doo whop" sound of a coin. I am thinking quarter all the way. Three scoops down and it finally came out of hole of the caving in wet sand. It is the biggest ring I have ever detected. A big boy for a big boy!!! 18.9 g and size 13 1/4. I can wear it on my left thumb. To bad it wasn't a gold class ring but I will take silver any day. I am not sure what the stone is either. But beggars can't be choosers. LOL Thanks for looking!

Steve Herschbach Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 The stone looks like agate (chalcedony) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe D. Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Nice silver whopper! My silver wedding ring isn't nearly as chunky, but is a size 15! I have fat fingers!🤣 . Here's a few similar agates i found! (On the internet)! Is the bottom of the stone open? It looks like its picking up some of your skin color due to it being translucent!👍👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schoolofhardNox Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Beautiful ring. I bet they paid a pretty penny for it. That should have shaken the sand when they dropped it 😄 Great find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
