And its a shame it isn't gold. But alas, maybe after Hanna graces us with her presence 
. Managed to get home and hour and a half before low tide, and hit the ground running, despite my rough success of late. 1 ring for me in the last 10 days, and it was a mood ring 
. Well, I hit not one, but two nice rings, and both are silver. The second one I dug gave me a good start, was praying for it to be white gold, but, nope - silver. Oh well, I suppose ill check the stones anyhow.
The earring pictured has an obscure stamp on the post. I *think* it says 417A8A. or maybe 417ASA. I really cannot tell, and, the 417 might be something else. My mind is saying it has to be 417, since I want to force it to be gold. If anyone has any idea what it could be, I would appreciate the help. I checked it under 10x magnification, and still couldn't make it out.
And the second picture is of a first for me. That sucker barely gave a signal, cause it was about 18 inches deep. Thankfully I hit that in the wet sand, and not in the surf. Saw fishing line after the first scoop, and thinking it was a hook and sinker I tried to pull it out. Yeah right! That bad boy was still over a foot below. Ain't ever gonna work again, but, a neat find anyway.
I hope y'all are hittin the big ones, and leaving just one good honkin trinket for lil old me
