Doing rather poorly at the beach I made up a photo of my Best finds for the week. Three Silver rings, a nice looking gold colored chrapie and a Silver dime. (I also pick up any heart shaped rocks I find). The earrings are interesting but junk.

SO...Friday morning {before posting my Best Finds) I decided to try the wet sand at the beach. Got up at 6 AM and was detecting by 6:15. Well the wet sand was not good...except for 4 modern train tokens valued at $1.50 each. Being still early I swept the dry sand with my Sand Shark a bit heading for my car. YIKES!! a 14K wedding ring! It was down only about 3" deep. Weighs in at 3.1 grams and the diamonds look real.

The squirrel came out of nowhere and was about a foot away reaching for my gold ring as I was making the photograph! I went in the house and got it some peanuts.The ring is safe.

I especially like the Motto on that "Moebius" silver ring...Nothing is impossible.

Nice week. That engagement ring is a beaut! I'd think about a professional exterminator to deal with that bushy tailed rat though. Although peanuts are cheap and if it keeps him from running off with your finds, a bag of peanuts would be cheaper.

That squirrel was literally hanging over the fence trying to get at my ring. He's used to being hand fed (by neighbors) and I'm sure if he got close to my ring he'd of grabbed it!

Hmmm..can you imagine a dozen trained squirrels ... on leashes ... scouring the blanket line of the beach? :laughing7:
