We're well into week three of our summer on the East Coast, and while the targets are fewer and farther between than I'd like, I have managed to pull up a few goodies...

14K class ring...

A couple of silver rings...

A crucifix of unknown metal...

And probably my best ring yet, which was instantly claimed by my wife (fits her perfectly) - unmarked (sure it's white gold or plat) vintage ring with three diamonds...

I found this ring in a freshwater pond, just outside the roped off swim area. I picked up a mask and a 4lb dive belt today so I can try diving in the deeper areas of this and other ponds where other detectorists don't go.

And here's the first two golds I picked up the first week we were here that I already posted...

We've got four more weeks of vacation, so hopefully I'll have more to post soon!

Happy Hunting,

Jim

Wow Jim, those are some beautiful rings. I love the vintage one, the one you wife chose to wear. The starfish really makes the rings stand out. CONGRATS :icon_thumright:

Wow!

Very intersesting and unique finds. :headbang:

I've never seen a class ring like that. The ring w/3 diamonds is nothing short of spectacular. That multi-stone ring looks pretty hefty as well.

Congrats. :icon_thumleft:

Wow. If that's what you're hitting when the targets are few and far between, I'd hate to see what you do on a good day! :icon_thumleft:
