On vacation this past week in Florida and the weather in New England followed me down here. Glad I brought the wetsuit, finally got in the water yesterday and found 3 bands, 14K and 18K and a tungsten. Tried a new beach today and had a 5 ring day. 2 14K rings one black hills with diamonds, 2 silver rings and a monster platinum band. Has to be about a size 14 and likely weighs 15 grams. We fly out tomorrow night so I'm gonna try to get in one more spin. Happy Hunting ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1515379148.926570.jpg

Now there is the ultimate pirate trifecta! Gold, silver and the elusive platinum....not to mention ice! Congratulations! It's those type of hunts that keep us going. Sounds like you certainly paid for your trip! Thanks for sharing!
