Short hunt leads to 3rd ring 2012

[Bev]

I went down to a park that is on the bay near me yesterday afternoon. I fooled around in the open areas and woods a little then went down to the little beach since it was low tide. I forced myself to really listen to my AT Pro and tried to decipher targets from hot rocks. I tried to guess before I dug and I think I have a little more of a handle on it now.

I'm getting back to hunting alone again and I think it helps me go at my own pace. Although it's always friendly I find myself almost "competing" when I'm hunting with others. I move too quickly and it seems like I'm the only one not getting the good stuff. I know it's me- I do the same thing fishing! When I'm alone I remember why I enjoy this hobby and I concentrate on my own hunt rather than those around me. Then I come here and enjoy all your finds and get all revved up again!

Anyway... My concentration paid off with my 3rd ring this year and finally finally finally- gold! It's marked 10K and I'm not sure if it was clipped or broke. Can't make out the initials because no matter how I hold it, it looks like one letter is backward! It's small- maybe women's size 4.

I also saw a little kid with a detector with his family walking along- It's getting fierce out there!

WTG - on the gold
looks like early 1900's design
pre WWII I would think
what I would call "old Gold"

I'm having a pretty good time- even when I dont find anything. I watched the seagulls, was amazed at just how clear the water was, watched three people on horseback on the trail...It was a nice day with even better ones to come!
