I got desperate the other day and took to the beach. Upon arrival I saw the water was frozen but some spots had holes in the the 1/4" ice. So I jumped in and started breaking up the ice with my scoop. Then I had to push away the broken chunks under the unbroken ice. I cleared up an 80' by 40' section and started detecting. After about two hours I only had 1 nickel, 2 memorials and 2 wheaties to show for. Now I had that "losers lounge" feeling and Bam I came across a nice loud signal. Took me about 10 minutes to recover it, glad I didn't give up. This was the prize

A 13gram 14k white gold with 4 diamonds :)
And it's a perfect fit too :)

Super looking ring and 13 g to boot. Very Nice. Be gentle with the wife, she may have sentimental value attached to your original wedding ring. HH, Papa

Take the ring off quick.... as soon as your hands warm up, it will not come off without a dunk in cold water again.........

Great effort with even a greater reward! Nice ring.
