Lorraine made me do it.........

Inspired by Lorraine's gold getting antics in the rocks - I ventured out to a tidal creek where alot of sand has washed out and has exposed the rock and old oyster beds. It was a battle - heaps of sinkers. Eyeballed the shell first, couple of 925's - Goat Zodiac, the one in the middle has makers mark HMC? The womens rose gold band is tiny weighing in at 0.7g's - very dirty, but cleaned up easily enough, my smallest yet - it has no hallmark so I can't make the 100% gold claim here - but I think it looks the goods! HH

Oh - a thousand apologies Lorraine - I mispelt your name on the title!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

+++++ I got a nice phone call last night from the owner of the Medi Alert Chain I sent back last week - he lost it 2 1/2 years ago and was amazed I had rescued it - made me smile.

awesome finds - keep at it

I always hunt the rocks - alot of guys dont like to - they either cant cause of mineralization
or dont like the digging or dont like the wear and tear on the machine
but like my motto says - I like to go where others cant or wont

Smoogle, those rings are very nice finds...congrats on finding the gold ring!

Absolutely no problem with the dropped "e" ....that's insignificant; but a dropped "r".....now that's cause for alarm :laughing7:

Seriously, great jobs hunting those rocks...get back there soon!
