Rope Of Rings

[Allen in MT]

Used to have all my rings on the wall in cases that held 72 each. It was time to clean house and I took all the gold rings and sent off to a refinery for a nice tidy sum. Was able to return all class rings and a few wedding rings. Then took all the Sterling/.925 rings and melted the bad and broken ones and kept a tray of 72 for later sales or melt.

This rope as of today has 405 junk or trinket rings on it. Threw out a number of broken rings that wouldn't go on the rope. Maybe someday I will re seed for future detectorists.

I would do it with a slingshot 🤣.

With a good slant you could reach about 150 meters from the launch point and litter a beach after clearing it of better things🫢🏴‍☠️

There's a joke here, but what if I told you that since 2005 I've found in at least three spots a slew of brand-new washers purposely thrown into the water?

Somewhere there is always someone who thinks they own a spot, and there is no shortage of imagination.

Washers ARE worth more than zincolns !🤩 and nickels too !

That "Rope of Rings", and all your myriad of finds, I'm sure, are amazing; and a huge amount of detecting! I don't think I've dug that many pull tabs, since I moved to the "Treasure" coast!😆  It doesn't account for much, but I do have the privilege of walking over 300+ year old Spanish Treasure on a few of our beaches here!!😂 we just can't get too any of it, except on rare occasions! Now if i could bring a dozer with me....🍀👍👍

I assume you've been at this hobby for quite a while and live by an awesome beach.
