OBN0401 (3).webpGot out Monday for a few hours, water is really coming up in Temps. In less then one week it has climbed 4 degrees. Gold Number 6 for the year comes from a older beach dating back to the mid 1800's. Not sure of the dating on the ring but it has hallmarks from the late 1800 to early 1900's.

Nic find! Gold is still on my list! So far I've found two silver rings on my only two outings for the year...
 

Very nice OBN. You are a gold magnet... or magnate, depending on your viewpoint. GL&HH.
 

THIS,,,

Is the stuff I hope to find when I get down to Deal Island in a few weeks.

Gonna mix up a little Spring run stripers with a LOT of detecting.

Thanks Argentium, Amazing I have pulled many rings from this beach and this is just one of maybe 80 which hold treasures in the Chesapeake Bay..If one only had the time..
 

That is my favorite type of ring. An old time signet ring.

Way to go!
 

Nice work on the gold.
 

Bringing up the old gold! Really nice signet ring! Congrats!

Glad the water is warming up for you! Stay warm!
 

Those old rings have a certain aura about them...I always say the only thing better than gold is old gold...congrats OBN.
