My buddy and I spent yesterday in the river again and happened onto a spot that has somehow been missed by other detectorists! This was a really strange spot as there were almost no pull/pop tabs. I think we pulled 4 tabs between the two of us. What a nice change!
All 9 of these rings came out of about a 30 yard stretch of river and in about 1.5 hours time hunting. What an unreal bonanza, and a day I won't soon forget.
First was the black tungsten ring, then the big (size 13) yellow 14k band, then the sterling Celtic band, then the sterling/turquoise ring, then I spotted the 10k white gold band by eye from about 8 feet away. Then John scored his heavy 14k band with the inset diamonds. About 10 feet away from that I scored the wedding set, which I was sure was gold until I got home and spied the 925 marking inside. That puts me at 113 silvers this year so far!

And, of course, the other random finds, including a very small rail spike from the logging days.

Looks like your on a hot spot.

I was surprised that we didn't find a single ring in the 2.5 hours we hunted after lunch. I guess we cleaned it up pretty good before lunch.
 

That turquoise ring is really neat! Congrats!
 

Dang that's a nice spike.๐Ÿ˜‚
Dang it you had a great hunt.
Congratulatio
Yep, it's gonna look real purdy in my spike collection. :tongue3:
Thanks Pepper!

Thanks!
That's kinda funny, of all the gold and silver rings I've found, that's the only one my wife has laid claim to. It definitely looks better on.
