Sitting on my back porch drinking coffee and watching as the sky lightened I childishly imagined finding 5 rings today. I hadn't been to the south end in several weeks and once I got there I remembered why. A few coins, junk jewelry and some trash.
About half way into my allotted hunt I walked up to the waters edge to take a break and crossed over a patch of sea grass. I normally don't go for signals in the sea grass because it's usually trash, but this sounded really good, even for the PI.
So after 3 scoops I see this yellow brilliance among the green, brown and tan. OMG!! I think to myself as I see the crown of the ring. Pulling out it from the mix I think, What the heck? It's a stinking giant toe ring. CRAP! CRAP! CRAP!
As I put it into the pouch, I'm thinking man that looks awfully good to be a piece of junk. I must of pulled it out of my pouch 10 times to look at it during the rest of my time there. I came to the conclusion that it could only be plated...if that.
Once I got to the car I checked it yet again and thought I saw something inside the band that looked pretty deliberate and straight. Oh man I think. I have got to start keeping a loupe in the car.
It was a long ride home and the first thing I did was check what I thought I saw and sure enough. "750" BABY!!
Tested 18K too and weighs 5 grams. The weight of the thing is in the cameo looking crown.
Sorry for the long narrative. Thanks for looking and good luck out there!
