Yup..I gave up the Federrer/Djokovic semi-finals to head out in search of treasures....got back home in time to see Djokovic pull off a stunning victory :headbang:

Sooooooo, the tide was receding as I hunted the dry sand.

Decided to hunt an area where there were huge truck wheel indentations from working clean-up from Irene. Not my favorite type of terrain because it is not so comfortable walking among those sand moguls, but I gave it a try ...looked kinda promising...Glad I did. :icon_sunny:

Found the 14 K white gold /yellow gold band (4.07 gms) at about 5 " depth, and about 5 minutes later, the sterling ring was found...also not deep.


I think the sterling ring is custom made. I like the turquoise stones.

Tomorrow are the Open finals.....hmmmmmmm. :icon_scratch:

Here's pics


As always, thank you for looking

Lorraine

Love the gold and silver day of hunting Lorraine. Nice score!
I also think the sterling ring is custom made...it has that look.
As far as the finals go.....record it and watch it later when you
get back from hunting. GL and HH Gold Nuggets :hello:
