Hunted 1 1/2 hrs after work and scored a nice gold ring for my honey.10K Emerald two small diamonds flaked both sides. Its on her finger already. Cleaned it up and took a picture for you to see. I had short boots on and got chased up by a wave. I probably would not have found it it that did not happen.It was in a small cut by the bulkhead. Also found a silver surfer ring and .77 in clad two were quarters.

Never got to see it in the scoop.It sounded off like gold but after I pin pointed it, if started to sound like a big piece of copper. I scooped it on first scoop. dump it out and gave the pile a kick,it rolled out.
I thought at first it was an earring, but when I picked it up that all changed. It was my third target in the hunt. It sure makes the rest of the hunt go better.

This is true... My girlfriend gave me a very small gold ring with a stone in it about 2 years ago. She felt something under her foot in a shopping mall one day and kicked it sideways. It was just lying on the floor :laughing7:
