Great post , and I like those photos, Bluediamounds 55:headbang:

One of those silver rings looks to be a signet ring..my favorite style.

I wish you the best on the Gulf

Those sites will reopen some time. I enjoy going to new areas to hunt. You never know it could be better or worse. Good luck in your future hunts.

Good luck in Galveston. I'm about 45 minutes from there and have never seen so many people hunting it as lately. It's crazy.

Great past finds. Congrats.
Last 3 Galveston hunts yielded me 1 james avery silver ring and a total of $5.00. Very slim pickings, but NO seaweed. Still not bad for a hobby. HH Gayle

Nice rings and by the looks of it the average collection of crap it takes to dig then up. After this storm get on down to the Galveston beaches and be safe and happy hunting.
