4 Gold Rings 1 Platinum Diamond ring & 28 Silvers

Mike and I have been itching to hit this private beach for a year now but never could get permission but by chance I caught a home owner home the other day and gained access for Friday. What a day, water was calm in the little cove and we took advantage of the lower then normal tide. Targets were deep and we did a long hunt for us..6 hours.. I could have stayed 12, but we did not want to over stay are welcome. Old class ring? I believe it is either 1916 or 1918... ...Another Beauty was the Ladies Platinum Diamond ring, Stones check out as Real...On leaving I thought I had 6 golds for the day but dag, one was 1/30 gold plated...EGP... Hoping we can get back again in September, and very thankful for the home owners kindness.

Mike was able to pull 3 walkers, several other silvers, and 1 14k.. A great day for all

Thanks for looking and Be Safe...

Thank You!!
Long story short, Retired, sold my home, all my toys and planned on moving to the Ocean. Sister told me rent before you move to make sure you like the area and the seasons. Rented at the Ocean for 2 summers now... Enjoyed the Summers but the fall, spring and winters are boring. My best treasures have been here in the Bay, less then a hour away. So I have decided to get a small place on the Bay. Some reason I felt treasure could be had on the Ocean, but come to find out there is more in my own back yard... I just had to stop and smell the Roses.

I find one ring and I'm in la la land, I'd be totally nuts if I found all those in one hunt. Great job!!
