Gold, silver, and "YIKES"...4 days' hunting

Hi

Camera wasn't working for the past few days , so I postponed posting my finds until I repaired it.

Winds have been blowin' and moving some sand so it was a fun -filled 4 days of hunting while Hank practiced his golfing.

Found some "oldie" coins (1914 "wheatie", a "Liberty" dime, a silver "Roosie") a "not so old" Kennedy half, and a $1.00 Presidential coin.

Also finally on the 4th day ( today) I got lucky with a pretty 14K gold ring

Also met a couple of hunting buddies out there whom I haven't seen in a while...it was nice to chat for a few minutes with these terrific guys/ terrific detectorists.

Was hunting the "muddy flats" at low tide and found the ring on the rim area of a depression
that I spied while carefully reading this favorite beach. ring was not deep, just one scoop.

Stones are not remarkable; weight : 2.28 gms.

Here's some pics.

Thanks for looking at my finds.

The best to all of you in your detecting.

Excellent finds, Lorraine. The 14K ring is beautiful and I love the mercury dimes and those toy cars. Glad you're getting out for 4 days detecting and Hank is back playing golf. Hoping I get an okay from the doctor Friday to get out some this Saturday and next week. At least 2-3 weeks before I can get in the water again. I have 5 new permission letters just waiting when I get back to detecting. GL & HH.

Great looking finds I got one of those skull rings a few years ago

Hi Lorraine! Awesome hunt! I love the tear drop ring and the cars!

Lori, Great ring and the old coins, if theirs any more beach erosion you'll be digging up coins from the 1800's. Also at first I though the other ring was Darth Vader. Good luck out there.

Haven't been to Ham this year; Hank would like to golf there at the near-by golf course so we may get there some day-perhaps in the Spring; would be nice to meet up with you for a hunt before the beach opens for the season ( I understand that there is no detecting allowed during the "beach hours" once the season begins.

Haven't been on the board in awhile so I missed this. Grats on the gold Lorraine, nice ring for sure.

Still haven't made it out to do any dirt fishing, but at least I dreamed about finding silver and gold last night. Maybe tomorrow and I'm expecting just 45 minutes to an hour if I can hold out that long and the ground is saturated with water from 3 days of rain and have high expectations.

Thanks for sharing!
