Hi:hello:


Very windy at low tide today, but sun was bright ...beautiful day for detecting:hello2:

Hunted a trough line for entire shoreline of a beach..sinkers/ coins:icon_scratch:

After about 1 1/2 hrs. in this trough line, I decided to look over the jetty to see what the conditions were at the next beach; noticed an area about 25 yrds. in length....with pebbles / shells ; hopped over the boulders and within 15 minutes hunting this area, I got a solid medium/low tone , and recovered the Platinum ring.:icon_thumright:

This is my first Platinum ring find, and I was so happy to find it.

The ring has a gold inlay in a "swerve" pattern around the band.

Here's some pics

Thanks for looking

p.s. "merc" and "wheatie" were found at yesterday's hunt

Yahoo Lorraine! I haven't seen any posts from you lately and wondered what you were up to. Now I know you were holding out for platinum! Congrats.
 

WTG Lorraine! :occasion14: Congratulations!
 

Outstanding.
 

great finds Lorraine, I wish all rings were PT...:) you deserve that one...very cold and raw day today...
 

CONGRATS!

I am just jealous.

Drove a total of 700 miles this past weekend to try and find the "good stuff". Came home empty handed, no civil war trinkets for me.

Now go find another plat!

HI BOB!



Thank you , Bob,

You have to know that I have gone weeks ( detecting almost every day) with finding nothing special in the scoop.

I just got lucky....hope my luck holds out a bit longer.

Nice score...still waiting on my first PLAT...I think the mark might be Pt. instead of PL ...congrats on a great find.
 

Congratulation Lorraine. If anybody deserves finding a plat, you sure do! Very nice one too.
