Hit spot that is mostly a fishing spot now but was swimming area years ago - was only getting sinkers and lures
then got a thin merc dime - got a small pyramid sinker way out and got another similar sounding reading bout a foot away and thought
it was another small pyramid - was surprised when I looked in and saw shinny gold class ring with red stone - 1964
next hour was just more sinkers and lures and a few net weights - went back out deeper and got a ring style pull tab sounding reading
was again surprised with another class ring - 1965! Worked out there for another 1/2 hour without a hit ...then out in the middle of no where
got a good solid signal - thought it was another sinker - turned out to be nice silver cross. Turned out to be a good day.

Very nice Casper!! Congrats on the gold and silver.
The dime has had a few hits, clips, and bumps that's for sure.

its funny - coins here get caked if they sit and get worn thin if they are in a spot with movement - that dime is razor thin - did not touch it - as found - edge is bent over - don't know if I did that with scoop or not - glad gold still comes out as gold - again ...as found ...the darker one must have silver in it for other alloy because it is tarnished but it should shine up
both are 10k - I thought the red stone one might have been 14k because of its shine - both were around 8 ins down in like chest deep water at low ttide
