Compass Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 On New Years Day I drove to 6 beach spots hoping to find a productive one. I didn't even take the detector out of the car at most locations because it looked like the big surf was not doing much sand moving. However, I saw some small cuts at the last stop and started finding targets pretty regularly. The larger ring is 14K yellow gold and weighs 6.6 grams. The smaller ring is rose gold and is stamped "18K 0.39". I assume that the 0.39 is the total carats of the small diamonds encircling the ring. At first I feared that the ring was one of those ubiquitous, gold-plated, silver, Pandora rings that look so good but aren't too valuable but it weighs 3.3 grams and passed the acid test. It's a beautiful little ring but it is missing a couple of the stones on the bottom. Very late in the hunt I scooped out the silver bar (see earlier post) and I think I said to myself, "You've got to be kidding me!". This hobby has provided so many surprising moments over the years. It was the perfect way to end a hunt and start a new year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mn90403 Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Thanks for the report. I concur about the conditions on Monday. It was a pretty disorganized storm as far as the waves were concerned. The sand was too soft at my beaches. Good to find a spot that coughed up those rings and silver. I went out today. A couple of interesting finds.

Mine is not as robust and does not have the right markings. When I found the ring T&Co was my first thought - maybe next time! 4 hours ago, mn90403 said: Thanks for the report.

The end of this week may even be better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
