10K ring in a May snow storm

[mike b]

I didn't plan on going out today but with heavy winds and low tides I had to go. Very very old swim beach where a hotel used to be, everyone hits this beach so finding anything that isn't lead is hard. The water only gets this low a few times a year so when it does I like to move things not normally seen at higher water. I must have flipped 20 large stones between 10-40 pounds this ring was under one of the larger stones. Its marked 10K, the stone is toast and the solder joint is going.

That snow has gotta be crappy, but great job on the gold ring sometimes you just need to get out. Awesome find Stay safe .....Tommy

It was an intense squall that lasted on and off for about an hour with scattered blue sky and bright sun.. The snow didn't stick.

Great find! You got a workout in lifting the stones and found gold- well done. The weather was the same here yesterday except it was rain.
