Update on the Rings Value/Best week of the Summer for treasure,

Most of the time I post over on the Maryland Forum but Had a really good week last week, 5 days of Treasure hunting...Minelab Excalibur, Remote PP, Skullies, And Coil Change Endcap....Used the 10 inch coil most of the time, but did swap out to the 13ULT and the Sunray 8 once. This Endcap has over 200 plus hours with no issues...Totals for last week are 26 grams of Gold, 21 grams of Platinum..

The One Platinum , Stunning

Took in the Plat I found last week to Jared Jewelry, cleaned and appraised, took about 20 minutes, then Offer to purchase (for 9200.oo) since the stone was in perfect shape, Amazing he never even weighted the ring, said all the value was in the stone.... Retail is between 23,000, and 27,000...

Thank You, The first I hit was the main ring, about 6 inch's deep, the other two were NE, and SW of the original..maybe 12 inch's to the sides. Guessing about the same depth. With my eyes all I noticed was, the color was silver, one had a large stone, and the weight when I picked each up..total weight of both is over 21 grams.

Who in the world wears something like that to the beach? I find myself checking out all the bling people are wearing when I'm out on the beach now that I started detecting.

That's totally incredible. I love looking at finds like these. I realize its not luck but a lot of experience that brings about finds like this. Congratulations. That 2ct stone with those baguettes is gonna be worth some serious money. I would even guess 22K plus if its cut and clarity is what it appears. Totally amazing! And when you get tired of looking at that diamond then you have all the other gold and platinum you found. That's got to feel good!

Excellent finds, OBN. Sure takes my breath to see all those beauties. Having flashbacks to the old Kung-Fu movies and Star Wars. OBN, is the old master talking to the grasshopper and Obie One Kenobi talking to the the young Jedi. Are you listening, Grasshopper & Luke. Lol
OBN, I've been trying to get out for two weeks and praying that everything lines up in the morning. I don't expect to find anything remotely like you found, but just don't know what's going to be under my coil and that keeps this hobby interesting. GL & HH.
