Nice finds! 
Your first photo also illustrates why the rings show up as pull tabs on my White's Eagle II. They even look alike!

Nice cross, but that body guard of it wow.
On a few hunts I have been lucky enough to pull coins and jewellry and not one pull tab. That would happen less then 1% of the time. I believe it was because of tidal action that it will lift up the lighter items like aluminum pieces and pulltabs. Most of my hunts I dig up at least 1000 pulltabs to every one good item, that's on land and close to shore or close to a landmark in the water. That's why I prefer to only hunt water from waist to neck deep. Less crap to dig, it washes away.
