My local beach affectionately known as tattoo beach, where people wear more tattoos than jewelry, I found this ring,Plated no stamps, who knows could be gold plated over silver but the main thing is got a ring with my new xcal, decided today to hunt in discrimination mode instead of all metal, cause if it was deep i wasnt diggin it, too beat up from yesterday. Did a ReeL short hunt, my mind was telling me to stay but my body was limpin to the car. I was excited thow since I cant hunt like I used to this excal is working out great wish I got one six years ago, better late then never cant wait to see what the future holds !!!........BeeP BeeP HH capt.

Gold is Gold. The important thing is that you got out and tried out the new machine.

Ring cleaned up really nice!

More body piercings than tattoos at the beaches I hunt.

Good luck on your next detecting adventure, Captain Poptop

That ring could be gold, might be worn down, or it was made by a jeweler and never stamped. Check it out!
