2 Gold Rings. Im digging this winter beach hunting.

[Garabaldi]

Cold today in mass, but headed out to the beach anyway. Dug 4 buffalo head nickles an 1898 V-nickle, couple of wheats, clad and two GOLD RINGS BABY!!!
One has a name LINDA 1-7-73 or 1-9-93? and a marking of 750. I forget what Karot that is. The smaller ring is 10K and says BABY. Could be for a baby or an adult baby with small fingers.
HH all.

When I dug them, they had a green redish coating. I immediatly walked them down to the salt water and rubbed my fingers over them. I figured that they were already scratched up so it wouldn't do anymore damage. I used my finger nails on some areas.

Maybe it's the salt water and surf keeping them clean. Mine come out an ugly, red color.

Ty you all.
The beach is very rocky, so I think the rockskeeps them looking like this.
I was pleasantly surprised when I dug them also. Nickles I dig on land are usually stained and ugly.

Congrats on the silver and the gold.

Thank you Pepper, but no silver. The coins are nickle.

I too was thinking the script looked much older.

Nice finds Garabaldi.

You know I never ever thought about 1893. I also thought the script looked old to me. I found the 1898 v-nickle and other 1800's items at this spot. It dates back to early 1700's. I wonder how we could find out if it is 1893?

Doesn't the design look machined and were they putting names in rings in 1893?

Great finds. Going to have to hit some inland sand myself.
