Well I've been at this a while and I finally got some gold. Sadly the massive center diamond was missing out of this 14K ring, but the 12 smaller diamonds are decent sized and good quality stones.

Wow, that thing's beautiful! Was it in the water? or dirt? Congrats on the gold... and diamonds.
 
Beautiful, even with the missing stone! TFS and HH!!
 
Was worth the wait. Nice one.
 
Congratulations on the Golden ticket! :occasion14:
 
Great job JC!
Heck of a first gold ring!
 
It was in the soft sand. Going back tomorrow with a sifter to see if the main diamond is in the area
 
Wow nice ring. looks like it was one big stone by the size of that setting.
 
Nice ring ...that stone was a dandy!!!
 
Nice find congrats! More details please for those of us still breaking our backs and not finding gold: on the towel line in the dry sand? On a coin line above the water line, or just a random find? At least let us pretend we have a chance :D

Hope you find the stone!
 
Just tell yourself ....... the big stone was a CZ and you will sleep better. Congrats on the gold...
 
flgliderpilot I found the ring in the soft sand about 15-20 yards from the dunes. Well above the towel line. There was a turtle nesting area roped off at the foot of the dunes and the area in front looked like it had been smoothed by one of the beach tractors. Although there were no cars in that area it would have been about mid "Car line" I suspect it fell out of a pocket while someone was getting into their car. Hope that helps you get closer to your first gold ring.
 
Great find! Congrats.
 
Great find on the gold! I hope there are many more in your future! Congrats.

Ummm yeah.

Did you test the remaining stones ? If real then YES return and sift like a baker at a flour convention...

The diamond that fell out of that ring would be worth some serious bucks depending on clarity.

Gonna be a hard long sift... but if found would be worth the long tedious work.

If you do not find it... it will possibly never be found.
