Columbus Day Gold

[lookindown]

Got out to the beach for an all day water hunt with BigMike and Davidfl. Beautiful day...91 degrees with calm, clear 81 degree water. We started at 8 AM and an hour in to the hunt I met up with David and asked him what he had so far. He said he had a few coins, a pull tab, a junk earring and the gold ring he was digging right now. I asked him if it was a mid tone and he said yeah, a solid one. He shook out his scoop and said there it is. I said your lying and looked in his scoop. He had an 18k, 6 gram gold band. Ive been on a gold drought the last few hunts but at 5 PM I broke the drought with a 7.2 gram 9k gold ring in the scoop. It was marked .375 and its the first 9k ring ive found...it looks hand made. Mike got a big tungsten carbide ring. The crowds were good for this late in the season. We had a great time but we always do no matter what we find....good luck to everyone.

To me the best was being on a hunt with friends on a great day and the ring was icing on the cake.

Glad you broke your drought I know how that feels. Do like the design of the ring for sure! What was the signal you got on that great looking find?

It was a solid mid tone on my CZ21...I checked it with my AT pro and it reads 63...that's getting close to a high tone.
