Primary Interest:
Beach & Shallow Water Hunting
To say conditions for beach hunting on the west coast of Florida are challenging right now would be an understatement. They’re pretty BAD. Cold, dreary and rain, no one is going to the beach. No Donors. Haven’t even seen that many Detectorists – that is how bad it is. None-the-less, I pulled this beauty out of dry sand on a near deserted beach. Marked “AU 750” and “Tiffany & Co.” this 18k beauty fits my wife perfectly and it is already gone. Looked up on Tiffany site and retail listing is a cool $1,200! Funny thing, when I first found it, I thought it said “Sterling 925”; the lettering is real small. Figured it was gold plated. Got home and with loop discovered the real identity of the little treasure. At 3.09g the ring rang up a “23” on the Manicore (Beach deep, extra boost, Separation “4”, Sensitivity "32", Noise cancel, ground balanced).

Nice to see someone post up some gold finally....we have the same conditions here in the keys....its been ugly more than pretty here. Wind, rain, overcast, rough sea conditions, and generally scrappy Weather conditions. Congrats on the Tiffany!!
 
Sweet recovery, congrats.
Bonus that it fit the Mrs, extra brownie points never hurt.
