The MOTHER of all Plat...(updated with pics and results)

[Swing360]

I'd like to see this in a sticky named "water monsters" or something aptly named. Could be an awesome thread to quickly view the best, most impressive water finds here on FMDF.

Start it up! Don't let someone take your 1000+ reply thread from you!

That's not only the "mother of all platinum" but the father as well!

Thanks for all the comments guys much appreciated

Holy sheet is right That's an insane ring. Big congrats on the plat attack! $1415.43 spot plat prices. Any markings for the size of the diamond?

Thanks Guam no markings apart from 850 not sure on the size hoping it's a good grade will get it checked out and get back to you.

You beauty! 18k. Was that a respect for the old folks holiday hunt?
Glad to see you're still out there mate!

Yeah out showing respect to the oldies still at it forkandles heaps of trash this year from all the rain and floods guess I scored a few Kama points from the trash I pulled over summer
BTW finally got myself some Kiwi gold a dollar coin that is. First Kiwi clad I've scored in Japan. Another one off the bucket list

All downhill from now on G! Still, we'd all like to know what that's like!

Wow, incredible recovery. Who in their right mind would wear that to the beach. Godzilla?

I've dreamed of that same ring, Congrats. I am planning on having a jeweler here custom make a 25 gram Platinum replacement wedding band for me next spring. I was thinking 25 grams was pushing being to big, but I guess not, Go Big or Go Home!!!!

was wearing that big plat and had a pit stop washed my hands and was shaking off the water when the ring almost came off. The second heart attack it's given me

 

[18kRonin]

I'd prob lose my mind if I found that.

Thanks Swinglow, was touch and go for awhile there

Right place, right time, and a little perserverance... BOOM!

Very Nice.

Thanks Auriemma, was easy just spent 28 hours in total getting rid of the over burden over four hunts with the odd good keeper to keep me at it and out she popped Just wish I took pics of the trash but at the end of each day I was just too worn out to care
