I got to the beach later than usual, but I'm not complaining.

Pd stamp is for palladium, the metal is usually dark grey and like gold it doesnt tarnish easily. they make very neat palladium rings plus the metal is a tad bit over $700/ounce so great find!

Wow! Are those big honkin stones real?

Great hunt man, glad you got a gold and its a nice chunk of 14k at that. Palladium is about 23 a gram right now, almost the same as 14k...congrats.

I think you did better than you thought...palladium?
Very nice

I appreciate all the great replies. I don't know if the stones are real, but I doubt it. Man, do I wish the PD stood for palladium. Unfortunately, in this case it is Premier Designs' makers mark. They make fashion jewelry. I found it selling for less than $20. It's too bad, I think it's an awesome looking ring. It would of been my first palladium.

3 beautiful rings. congratulations. I went to the river and only had 2 hours to detect and found 5 pennies and lots of pull tabs. The first time since about July 13 I got to do some water detecting. I didn't find any good jewelry or even clad, but my sifter worked beyond my expectations. Going back the latter part of the week and hope to find something worth posting. HH.
