Good, Better & HOLY COW!

[mumszie]

I guess I am a greedy old lady but I keep wanting to find just one more “good” item before the year ends. I keep trying and trying but so far it has eluded me. Not counting the small gold ring I found the other day that I didn’t know was gold until you guys told me!

Anyway, off I went to the beach again this morning. I figured it was going to be chilly but I was willing to brave it. At first I just went along the edge of the water hunting just the wet sand. Ten minutes into my hunt I got a nice beep and thought I had found a dime. NOPE it was a ring. GOOD!



I didn’t think much of it at first. I figured it was a cheapo ring but when I got back to my car and started cleaning it off and looking at it under the loup I could see a 925 stamped on it. ALRIGHT! It was silver! I’ll take it. That was a nice start to the morning.

I kept walking and about ten minutes more – in between picking up a few coins – I got another nice beep. I’m still right along the surf line with the water just washing up over my boots. I figured well this is a dime for sure. NOPE it was another ring. A BETTER ONE it looked like. ALRIGHT!




This one was an engagement ring with a real nice stone but when I got back to the car and cleaned it off and looked for a stamp there was none and you can see it is not a “good” ring. OH WELL it is pretty!

I got down about as far as I was willing to go so I decided it was time to turn around and head back for the car but the water was really nice this morning. It had been washing up over my boots and sometimes up my leg and really wasn’t that cold so I decided that I would head back IN the water. I got about hip deep in the water and headed back and got a real nice beep beep! I dug it up and HOLY COW! This one was the best ring I’ve found so far! It has 31 diamonds and is stamped 750 inside. It is white & yellow gold! MY BEST FIND!







I also managed to find a small handful of clad this morning and my first Swiss coin. A 10 RAPPEN(CENTIMES) coin from Switzerland.



All in all this was an excellent morning for me and a great end of the new year for me! I’LL TAKE IT!

That had to bring a smile to your face when you saw that ring, again congratulations on the great find.

Hope your luck continues.

3 rings is a good day, but whenever you find a ring try using a spiral pattern out from the find or grid that area very well. Generally items collect together this may help in adding to your ring count...............HH

I had the same plan as you, but after 4 hours at the beach today (central California), I ended up with no rings and no gold.

Congrats!
