Weatherman threatened with predictions of 50mph winds; I wasnt' buying it...14K today

Hi,

Too nice outside to stay in, so I headed out 2 hrs. pre- low tide to seek my fortune.

Winds were no-where near 50mph and the sun was shining....great conditions

Well, I tell you...after 2 1/2 hrs. of finding clads , lures, golf balls ( one adorned with barnacles ), and misc. junk metals, I headed toward shore to start for home...

but something told me to return to an area on the other side of the pier where I had hunted earlier..it just looked more promising after more "muddy flats" appeared.

I was really tired, but determined to return home with something more than clads.

After gridding a few rows at the return site with nothing much to show for the effort, and ready to accept my fate of a "clad " day, I suddenly heard that nice low "growly" sound and proceeded to scoop out a 14 K ring.

It was about 5 " deep in the mud

Here's a couple of pics..

Thanks for looking

Lorraine

Thank you, Susan; I get lucky sometimes, but now I'll probably go 6 weeks with no appreciable finds...that 's the way it goes for me

I'm wondering why I can access some of Hamid's attachments, but the upper two only show "X" in a little box, and there is no way I can access the pic...tried, but unsuccessful

Any computer experts out there who can help this tech-challenged lady?

Thanks

Lorraine

Hamid, Thank you so very much for sending me the photo of that very beautiful flower house....it is amazing!

I love it, and would love to go inside that maroon door and just hide out for a while.

Wow! Congratulations. The picture is deceiving, I would have guessed that the ring was heavier than 1.97 grams. Good job!
