Going back to my "How is it I can have a great/lucky hunt in 1 1/2 hours" versus having the day off and spending a couple hours on the hunt:

This morning I headed out and spent 4 hours plying the waters finding a nice sterling ring with turquoise and some unknown to me orange stone, $1.77 US and a little over a dollar in local coin.

On my way back to the scooter a beach vendor stopped me and said that these people had lost a ring and had been trying to call me. Then the wife walks up and says " He lost his ring yesterday over there." When I looked theres like 8 people in the water feeling around with their toes. I say I'll give it a shot.

I get in the water and these folks won't move, but they keep telling me "it's right in this area", where they are standing. I'm thinking, well get the F#$k out of my way! Finally the majority of them left, leaving the wife and husband. I eventually got a nice signal and pulled up the gold wedding band that had the inscription the wife had told me was in it.

I got a hug from the wife who was kind of cute and the "I wanna pay you something" from the husband. I did not say no. I told them that I'd be talking to another beach vendor who I know and shortly after he came up and handed me the Benjamin.

Thanks for looking and good luck out there!

It looks like turquoise and coral, which are pretty hot items right now on site's like ebay. You might want to take a look. I know I'd be "very happy" if all of my silver rings had turquoise and coral on/in them. Sweet silver dig for sure. :thumbsup:
