I haven't posted anything since I left for Spain on the first of Sept. We had a pretty good trip despite the triple storms that hit. We had several days of heavy rain that muddied the waters at several of our better beaches. There was several other hunters there that stayed with us during the 52 day period and most did fairly good. Alltogether, the group(7) had 199 gold. some only were there for 2 weeks and others longer. I also found about $800.00 in spendable coins. I had one diamond ring with 6 1/4 ct diamonds and is platinum not gold. My heaviest piece was a bangle bracelet at 17.9 grams (18k) We all had a very, enjoyable time and plan to return in the spring.

If I read it right, It was 6 diamonds that were a 1/4 ct. each .....equal to 1 1/2 ct (instead of one huge rock). I think he was talking about the Beautiful Platinum ring directly behind the bracelet in the pic . Correct me if I am wrong as it happens every day.

WOW..That's one heck of a nice pile of rings.....Congrats. I bet that was one fun trip for sure :thumbsup: . That $800 in clad is a good start to you next trip back in the spring. Got more picks of the trip? What detector did you use on the trip? I would love to see them all lined up in a nice case. GOLD RINGS........drool......someday I will find one.

Thanks for lookin Jim. I found over 100 other jewelery items, besides the gold. There are several other hunters in this area and the gold and coins are starting to slim down. I don't hunt very long each day (2 to 3 hrs) Most of the other people that are with me, hunt 4 to 5 hrs. We usually stop and get a coffee for me,(I do all the driving) and every gets a beer or what ever. We have a really relaxing time and don't get in much of a hurry.
