Weatherman threatened with predictions of 50mph winds; I wasnt' buying it...14K today

Hi,

Too nice outside to stay in, so I headed out 2 hrs. pre- low tide to seek my fortune.

Winds were no-where near 50mph and the sun was shining....great conditions

Well, I tell you...after 2 1/2 hrs. of finding clads , lures, golf balls ( one adorned with barnacles ), and misc. junk metals, I headed toward shore to start for home...

but something told me to return to an area on the other side of the pier where I had hunted earlier..it just looked more promising after more "muddy flats" appeared.

I was really tired, but determined to return home with something more than clads.

After gridding a few rows at the return site with nothing much to show for the effort, and ready to accept my fate of a "clad " day, I suddenly heard that nice low "growly" sound and proceeded to scoop out a 14 K ring.

It was about 5 " deep in the mud

Here's a couple of pics..

Thanks for looking

Lorraine

Wow! Congratulations. The picture is deceiving, I would have guessed that the ring was heavier than 1.97 grams. Good job!

It does look heavier, but it's just due to the close-up pic that I took to show detail on the ring.

Lorraine,

Nice ring !!! Just got back to Ct. Limited luck in Fla .... heavy pressure .... got to one beach just @ daybreak and there were 4 other detectors on the beach...... so played alot of golf. Got the Excal reconditioned and just recharged it today. Tried the AT Pro on wet sand yesterday and it's just not that good in the wet. Will get out with Bob in next few days. Look forward to seeing you on the beaches.

Hey, Don!

Glad that you have returned for another season.

Hope to see you and Bob on the beaches soon.

Hank and I are getting away for a few days of golfing and detecting...will talk with you when we get back...lots of stories to tell you.

Congrats Lorraine...very nice Gold!

I did a double take on the weight...saw 19.7 g missing the decimal point. About 2 g is more like it.

Gold comes at it's own pace .. the only certainty is that eventually it'll come ...can't give up.
