Nice job. At that depth I’m sure it was a keeper. I’m looking into adjusting some of my settings to see if I can get a little more reach. Thanks for the comment

Working an old school (1920 or 30's) where they had a new school (mid 1950's) behind the old built and then raised the level of soil and a new parking lot in front of the old school, off to the side I was digging cherps (not even close to getting a VDI and many would think just ground noise) and coming up with pennies and dimes at a foot or even more. I got a super faint signal but got the machine to give a VDI that said quarter(!) so I dug and up comes a 20K to 23K gold band. It was down deep, around a foot. The soil was not hard packed at all and super easy to dig real deep so I kept going as the area had been hit a ton with detectors and all the good signals were long gone. I bought a 15" coil just to do this area again but by the time I went, the site was fenced up and old school scraped and couldn't get into the area again. :( Now, a new warehouse covers the spot.
I have found coins even deeper on the beach but don't remember any rings super deep in the sand.
