So a friend of mine has been hounding me to start detecting with him in the water, since I recently spent way too much on an E-Trac, I have been resisting so that I can get some use out of it. So after finding nothing consistently on every hunt, he tells me I should really try the water, and that he would bring me to a place where he guaranteed that I would find something good. So I thought, screw it, bought some water gear and he let me use his Excalibur 1000. So on the drive he tells me about the place he refers to as his "glory hole", tells me stories of how he and his buddy would get something like 10-12 rings each per hunt when they started hunting it. He tells me they thinned it out over a period of 5 years, but it still produces every time. So we spent 3 and a half hours there in the water today, he found a 1911 V nickel, a 60's silver quarter, and a silver rosie. I was slow to get the hang of scooping in chest deep water, so I didn't recover too many targets, but I found these two rings. This is the best thing I have found so far and no thanks to the E-Trac
Sorry for the long story, thanks for reading.
p.s. Can anyone tell from the pictures if the second ring is silver? The black scratches off and it looks silver underneath if that means anything. I see a stamp but I can't make it out, can't say it looks like a 925 stamp so I don't know.
