So not to start off on a rant or anything but does it make anyone else mad as hell when you try to stay out of someone else's way Metal detecting at the beach and they keep hopping right in front of you and then to make it worse they don't fill in their holes? This happened to me the other day and this guy would not stop cutting me off and he wouldn't fill in a single hole I guess the part that pissed me off the most was every time I tried to get out of his way he would make it a point to get right back in front of me. Oh well on to some of the good stuff. These were a few of my pre-Irma finds from two or three different beach hunts.
These two were just junkers
This is a stainless steel Vancaro ring that is inscribed on the inside it's says "I love her"
Then this monster chain came out of the water... I thought it was a dog chain the way it just kept pulling up out of the sand lol ended up being .925
Last but not least this mangled 18k gold ring. Best part is while searching in a particular spot someone comes up to me and tells me I won't find anything in the spot because it's full of nails and trash(which there was a ton) it's where they put in somewhat of a new beach entrance and not five minutes after they said something I pulled out this gold ring. Made it feel all that much better! On top of that I almost decided not to go because it look like bad thunderstorms were rolling in ...so bottom line is you won't know if you don't go!!
One last question. Should I clean off the green encrusted patina and if so any best methods for doing so or do I just leave it like that in the collection? Thanks all and Happy Hunting!
