Finally had time to sit down and take a couple of pics of my beach finds for Jan.
A total of thirty rings and other stuff.
8 - 14k gold rings
1 - gold tooth and cap ;D
16 - silver rings - one a Tiffany w/ 4 small diamonds
2 - tungsten rings
1 - stainless steel ring
3 - junk rings

Other stuff:
Silver coins - four washingtons and a merc
Silver - square necklace thingy
Two tone bracelet - stainless steel and gold plated links
Figaro chain necklace - not sure what it is yet, will test as soon as my test kit arrives.

Not a bad month :hello2: , the tides have been good and the storms have taken allot of sand off the beach.

I just hit some bedrock last night and got two silver rings and tonight pulled out another three rings, two silver and one gold ring, that makes (5) rings for Feb. so far ;D (will post those later)
Thanks for lookin,

Val

Your chain looks like Miama Gold ,it's mark 14kt ,but test solid Brass. I got 3 of them, look good when you find one but disappointing when you find out what it is .
 

That is one nice pile of gold you have there!!
 

Very Nice finds ! Thanks for the pics . I have not found a ring yet . Can't wait . I have about to more months before I can hit the Water .
 

That's more gold and jewelry than I've found beach hunting in the last 3 years :dontknow:

I don't get to beach hunt much during the year, though, as I live in Northern California. I do love finding gold rings at the beach, though, and really enjoy looking at your pics.

Best of luck for a February that is at least as good as your January.

I think you might be right Ron, the weight on it is 53 grams, 24". Mine has a mark 925 ITALY I think, cant quite make out the numbers. I think it means gold plated silver but I think it might have been silver plated or goldplated brass. Will find out soon.
 

Very nice fines, I also found a very large chain like yours last spring.It also said 14k Italy.But was also a fake.72grams.I was seeing new Excall,Till i showed it to my magnet :dontknow:

aww, what a bummer. I wonder how the person that bought the fake feels about it? I don't imagine it could of cost them that much??
