2 rings - first gold and diamonds!

Glenn-RI · Aug 6, 2007

I got to the beach yesterday morning at about 5:15am. I planned on staying until 7:30am. I searched the wet sand for quite a while and was just finding junk and very few coins. I knew I was getting close to the time I had to leave and I still hadn't found anything good. I checked the time on my cell phone and it was 7:19. So I said to myself "I've got to find something good." The very next target was a ladies 14k white gold diamond cluster ring. At first I thought it was silver, but when I got to the car I saw the 14k marking. I was quite happy. It was my first gold and diamonds. It's also stamped "LJ" which I believe is a makers mark. I'm not sure who that is. Right after I found that ring I figured I would search that area more. I've noticed that like weight and shaped items sometimes get deposited by the surf in the same area. Well, 2 targets later (about 5 feet away) out pops the men's silver wedding band. I've been to the beach many times, but this was the best day I've had yet. HH

Cool Rings, let us know what they are valued at. I love the beach early in the morning when you have it all to yourself. I find that if I am interested in jewlery and going to hunt the wet sand my finds if any will be very few. If I need to satisfy my hunger for clad I will move to the dry sand and know I will pick up some there but no jewlery or very little.
Nice Hunt

Very nice finds, what are you using for a detector?

ScrewcapRoy....I agree.....there doesn't seem to be as much good jewelry in the dry sand. I met Joe88 at the same beach the day before. I searched the wet sand and didn't find anything good. Joe searched the dry sand and found a $10 bill and 3 $1 bills. Go figure.

lost at sea.....I used the PI Pro yesterday.

I see both of you are in Mass...hopefully you got out and enjoyed that nice weather we had yesterday.
