Gold on them thar' beaches! Best year EVER.
I mainly dig old stuff, give me a colonial site over a beach, but there are two beaches I've gone to that have new and old mixed. These were found 3 digging days apart, I sometimes drive and stay overnight at a local hotel to get two digging days back to back. Haven't found many coins this year, but this makes up for it. Anyway, the 10k white gold ring came first, 5 " or so down in shallow high sand. The 14K yellow HEAVY earring came next, as a shell tide line about 8 miles south of that beach the next day, and the next day hunting got the 14k man's ring with diamond. I supposed this is odd as I do not go in the water, mainly hit the dry sands.
I have NEVER found gold jewelry until the last couple
weeks.
