Four gold and a platinum in one day....:headbang: I don't post my finds very often, but I have not had a day like this for a long time!

The Russian ring ( I think) is marked 583 without the hammer and sickle. The craftsmanship on this ring is amazing it has 26 small diamonds? around the top and 1 in each of the double headed eagles claws.
It would appear that it is two rings soldered together as you can see through the scrolling.
Platinum is 999 a first for me I have found 950 and 900.
One of the other three gold rings is marked 916 (22K) The others have Asian marks on them.
All found in the water, with blue excalibur

Thanks for looking
Terry.

Thanks for the banner vote everyone:notworthy: I am honoured!
Had a four ring day yesterday( I just don't know what to say) this beach has not seen a coil before. Many out of circulation coins.
Another honker 916k, 1 small 916k,1 9999 a first, and a 6 gram 950 platinum.
Today will be my last hunt here until later in the year. I only have 1 water machine that is usable.. the other 2 are broken.

Bahahahah, that is an amazing spot and amazing nobody has been able to hunt, or successfully hunt it until now :) keep up the retirement fund, I wish you luck. I am curious as to how much trash you are digging and what is your more common finds?

Keep it up!

Love to see those massive rings. Just can't imagine the feeling you hold them in your hand.

Thanks for sharing and for this "beach banner" which is not so common :thumbsup:

I have quite a large waist pouch but even that is not big enough..( I am thinking of towing a barge behind me for the excess :laughing7: )
I normally put it in my dingy when my pouch gets too heavy and then dump it ashore. I find quite a few coins and for every gold about 10 bits of silver or junk jewellery it does vary from beach to beach.
