Took today off, so I decided to hit up my normal spot that we have just torn up recently. I knew something had to be left, just finding it would be the key. Low tide was at 0500 or so this morning, so I headed out around 4 am. I spent 2 & 1/2 hours working the middle part from the dry sand to the nets. I found 861 Yen ($11), part of a dolphin key chain, a turtle ring, a Pinky Dianne ring that has stamped inside PD & AS or A5 ( not sure what any of it means, I assume PD is for Pinky Dianne?), and lastly my huge Tiffany & Co PT950 ring. This ring fits over my middle finger and has lots of space to put a coin or something. The guy who owned this must have been a monster. Well all in all not a bad day, good thing I am happy I decided to hit up something I thought was worn out. ;D

You weren't kidding. That thing looks huge. But you really need a scale... just sayin'. I like numbers. Looks to be about 10 grams if I had to guess from pictures. Nice score buddy. I'm planning on tearing it up next week.... I feel a fat Pt coming my way and a wee bit-o-gold too.
