Here are a few pieces of gold jewelry from my last three short hit and run water hunts in South Florida, 5 1/2 total detecting time.
A 10K class ring & silver and gold ring, 14K ladies ring with sapphire & diamonds and an 1/2 ounce 18K double snake ring with ruby eyes. The snake ring must have been in Davy Jones locker a while as the enamel color has worn off, all found using my CTX 3030 and small 6 inch search coil in trashy areas.

Thanks to everyone for the replies, I think the top left ring is a silver & gold rope design not a nugget ring.
