I went out a couple of days ago and found Jesus in the wet sand! He is a heavy fella. 18 grams...I could use some help on trying to figure out What the markings are on the inside? I tried to take the best photos I could. The last two numbers definitely look like a 5 and 0 but the first I can't really tell... I thought it could be a 950 and the nine possible a bit smushed in or something. During the same hunt I found a small silver rose flower type earring as well. This beach has a ton of sharks teeth too!

Then Saturday I got back out and nothing for the first couple of hours and then bam in less than 2 feet of water an iPhone 6... Life proof case didn't help much but got it sitting in a bag of rice at the moment... Found a bunch of other miscellaneous junk bling after that. Thanks again for looking and any advice on the Jesus ring is greatly appreciated. As always good luck and happy hunting!

Nice bunch of finds...WTG
I've got a couple 950 silver rings. You got to acid test it, does it polish up?
Even Jesus won't help a phone that took a soak in saltwater...I don't give the rice much hope either!

It did polish up nicely. You can see in first couple of photos what it looked like before than on the scale and the following was cleaned up a bit... Don't have much hope for the phone at this point either but we shall see!

You'll probably have to do an acid test to tell which metal you're working with. If it's stamped 750, it's probably 18K gold. 950 could be high grade silver or platinum.
