Cold Gold at the beach today....14K

[lorraine]

Hi,

Snow in the forecast for tomorrow so I thought I'd give it another round today at one of my favorite beaches.

Temp hovering around 35* ....pleasant and sunny out there with a bit of wind.

Found the small 14 K signet ring in the first hour of the 2 hr. hunt; about 5 " deep.

I think it is an older ring...small images of flowers on either side show wear.

This was followed by just a few clads and lots of aluminum.

Here's a couple of pics.

Thanks for looking

You wear a wet suit? I know you mention 5" of water. Great finds!

No, I stay on land except for troughs ; I meant that I dug 5" into the wet sand to recover the ring.

Lorraine, I have never heard that one before... but I must add to it just a little and say that Philip Morris, Pall Mall, and Kent picked up Virginia Slim on their way....LOLOL

Leighton, did she live in Salem, Ma. or in Newport, RI?

The Marlboro Man would have gone along, but he died! I am still laughing, you guys are funny. Nice ring, gold is such a neat find. You are a brave young lady to brave that weather. Are you married?

Whydah, you might say I made a Lucky Strike when I found that Old Gold in the Kool weather today.

Remember this one?: One fine Holiday Philip Morris, Pall Mall, and Kent( who lived in Marlboro, Ma) boarded a Camel to take a trip to Parliment. On their way they found some Old Gold...now wasn't that a Lucky Strike!

brrrrrrrrrrr, I'm shivering just thinking about that ice - but for a sweet old 14k like that - I'd be there with you - might have to leave my boardshorts at home though!

WTG Lorraine. You're silver streak ends, and you replace it with gold.

Oh, I'm definitely ready ,kc10bull

Count those layers
(Yup, that's Hank's jacket that I purloined for the winter hunts)


Expected recoveries on the beach: pull tabs, pop tops, canslaw, and even though lately pickens have been slim up here, maybe I'll get lucky and dig some cold gold with "ice"
