I set foot on the beach at 10:07 a.m. and at 10:27 a.m. BAM! my first gold ring of the year. My first gold anything of the year to be exact. After I finished my happy dance, it was back to finding the clad. I worked the dry sand until 4:30 p.m. Towards the end of my hunt out popped a nice silver bracelet. This was my best hunt in a long time.

86 coins= $8.87

not just any gold...Tiffany! sweet and that silver bracelet is nice too. congrats
 

Thanks everybody. The ring was a real surprise. I was so excited, that I sent my wife a text message on my cell right after digging it. I figured with kids going back to school this week there would be less people at the beach. Less people on the beach, the less chance of finding jewelry, or so I thought. The clad was popping up quite a bit too. Finding the bracelet was nice towards the end. I was just about turn and search in the other direction when I found it. The ring is pretty heavy, but I think the bracelet is just a little bit heavier.


I experienced another first on the beach yesterday. A young couple (mid 20's) were walking by the water about 20 ft from me. All of a sudden he stops dead in his tracks, gets down on one knee and proposes to his girlfriend. She was very shocked by this as I heard her say "are you serious!?" She immediately said "yes". A few other people around me noticed what was going on and applauded the couple. It was nice to see that.
 

WTG on the gold and silver. You sure made out on the clad. Hopw more gold comes your way since the dry spell is broken.....Matt
