A faint signal, a tough push on the scoop and something I never expected to find was in my scoop.

It was Davy Jones' duck pin bowling ball, engraved with his initials! At first I thought it was a water ball, one that “floats” on a water fountain. It barely fit into my scoop. Almost forgetting about the signal, I was about to dump the scoop but decided not to, but rather to keep the beautifully colored globe. SMART move as hidden under the ball were two dolphins, each with a diamond “eye”.

I found one just like it. Minus the glass.
 
Nice score WW, glad you didn't throw it away before looking it over.

It never ceases to amaze me what we can find in the water. I found an old 14K wax seal this Winter in the water that WASN'T a ring...go figure, how the heck did that get in the H2o.
 
Great post, Waterwalker!

Congrats on two unique finds:hello2:

Love that double dolphins ring with diamonds!
