28 RINGS in 16 HOURS (7 days)

9AU, 3Pt, 5AG, 5 tungsten 6 yet to be cleaned and identified. Most likely they are junk.
One hat trick (Platinum, Gold and Silver in one day).
Two rings with diamonds: 3 on one and 6 on the other. One 24K ring.
I had to fight a sting ray and jelly fish for the right to detect. Great fun!

Best of all: my last find was a 10 day "old" wedding band and was returned to its owner! Marriage saved.
I tried to return the college ring and another wedding with no luck.
The college had no record and the owner of a wedding band left without leaving their information.

Other totals: 34 coins, 5 pendents, 1 pair earrings, a locket, a bracelet, a locket, and a starfish for Pandora.
Something less than 25 bottle caps/pull tabs. less than 80 targets in the 16 hours (5/hour). A slow but GREAT hunt.

Good Lord...what a good week you had!
You found these on the Cape? Wow!
I miss the Cape, especially when the fog rolls in, and you can smell the salt air...

It is a fact about the Colleges have no and keep no records of their students after graduation,,,, we called and said no record available....at least the College I called anyway..

Great, Great, bunch of Finds !!! Have never ever got even close to a hunt like this....congrats for sure!!!!

WHAAAAT 28 rings and only 34 coins? I'd take that ratio any day of the week and twice on Sundays. Congrats on a great hunt.
Were you wading or scuba diving?

Good grief! My best totals for a month only yielded 27 rings. What a honey hole you found!

 

[MrMikeJackie]

The math in my head doesn't sound right, maybe I need some more rum. Nice finds

 

[Tommybuckets]

What machine(s) were you swinging? That's pretty amazing!

 

[ScubaDetector]

From the Caribbean, not a virgin spot only lucky timing between other pirates; wearing swim trunks, UV shirt and full face snorkel mask; swinging the Excalibur with a WOT coil; Cape Cod finds only one ring found THIS YEAR that was not a call out for a search – the six rings and a set of car keys I found have been returned. My bags are packed and I’m ready to go...again in about 6 months...they should have more targets and RUM by then. I am NOT adopting anyone, I have a daughter and grandson in the home right now, that’s enough. I have had better vacation totals back in the early 2000s BUT never such a fun hunt and with three women and me, I never stopped hopping! (The 3 were: my wife, sister and one of the Grand Dames of detecting). Hope this answers all questions, except maybe who is the Grand Dame?
