3rd CTX Hunt scores GOLD again...

[Whydah]

Went to the cut again today, and when I got there it was 34 degrees, with a wind blowing a stiff 25 mph from the NE... Let's just say it was cold... I had the cut to myself for about an hour then I had company. An old friend, we gave each other the hello sign and he stayed at the southern end, while I stayed at the northern part of the cut... I had already dug a Buffalo Nickel and a Shield Nickel.... But I was after the silver coins, and the GOLD if I could find it.... Still learning the tones on the CTX.... After a while I had 4 Mercury Dimes and what looked like 2 relidgous medals and some type of old medical syringe?... At least thats what it looks like... Ran out of targets out in the small rocks, so I went higher in the sand and banged out 2 Silver Washington Quarters and a Standing Liberty Quarter... As my friend was asking how I was doing, I pulled out a nice walking Liberty Half Dollar rite in front of him... This makes 14 for this season.... Man what a ride so far.... I walked down to where he said he had just gotton a couple silver dimes... My friend had just told me, he gridded the area very well, and wished me luck.... I took his luck and ran with it... I was just going slow, and then a grunt that was tight to a small boulder. I leaned over, and moved it away, so I could get a better stronger signal.... I said to myself this sounds just like a GOLD Ring... but it can't be, he just gridded this spot, 2 scoops down, and out of the hole, staring back at me was a beutiful antique men's 14 K Gold ring, it still has a nice red garnet....I also got a sterling bracelet that was in quite a few pieces..., a sterling ships wheel, a musket ball and some ear rings... A lot of targets up higher for tomorrow.... Happy Hunting....

I love that ring! It'd totally wear it.
I bet that was hard for your friend to swallow.

Very nice ring. Forgive my ignorance, what is a "cut"?

Beautiful ring!
Are you sure that's a garnet? It looks a little light in color for a garnet, would be really cool if that was a ruby

... I explain a cut in one of my older post... It is an area that has normally sand in that area.... Now showing rocks that are exsposed....This happens when the wind is strong enough to move that sand away.... we take advantage of those winds up here in the north...
