Biblical motif Silver ring and "wheatie" .....that was about it for today

Gorgeous morning at the beach...beautiful, mild breeze and sunny skies. :icon_sunny:

Hunted the incoming tide.

Found the silver ring in the first 10 minutes of detecting in wet sand about 6" deep. It was heavily encrusted , so it was given an electrolysis treatment for a few minutes to clean it up....

Ring is inscribed" 1 Thes 4:3-4

Here's pics...

Thanks for looking :hello:

Lorraine

Nice finds! :icon_thumright: you clean up silver very well. You do have a hot silver detector. What model do you use?

WTG Lorraine! Nice finds - That ring is a pretty popular style --- have 2 pals who each found that same ring, 1 at a ball field, 1 at the beach --- within the last month or two.

Awesome Lorrain. You did a great job on that ring. I usually don't clean mine up.. and if I do, I just use a wire wheel on a dremel.

Gorgeous ring there lady...1 Thessalonians 4: 3-4 reads....3: For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; 4: that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

Just an FTI...this most likely a "Chasity ring"...I gave a similar one to my daughter when she turned 16.

Thank you Search & Recovery. I use the Minelab GT , and when I want to give it a rest, I use the Sovereign Elite.

I was using the GT when I found this particular ringl

Congrats! :hello2: :hello2: :hello2:

Nice ring ...especially after cleaning.

I looked up the reference (forever curious) since I have one of those rings too...from about 2 years ago:

1 Thessalonians 4:3-4 = "It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable"

Nice sentiment ... I hope whoever lost it gets another!
