Default $40K Diamond Ring Lost On Beach

Well guys, Hopefully I will have hit my big one tomorrow.

I had a person contact me that they lost a $40K diamond ring on a specific beach in FL. They know where they lost it and they told me that if I can find it, there is a $5,000 reward for it. They told me that it was not insured so they REALLY want to find this badly! I am heading out right now to that (UNDISCLOSED) location in FL. I will post my results tomorrow upon my return. I'm giving it all I got to find it. Hopefully no other MD'er got it before I will arrive, it's been sitting in there for a week now. It's quite a distance from where I am located as well and its not a very busy beach.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this one! I got my eye's set on a nice new detector if I find this baby!

Until tomorrow!!!!!

Sorry, I have given up this lost cause. I searched high and low every square inch of the area that the guy said it was lost, out 50 feet wider in every direction. Nothing detected. Either it was picked up by someone else, or it was lost outside that area or it is sitting in such a way in the sand that the coil cannot pick it up, either way, no other signal was found. I gridded that entire area 2 times where the 2nd pass turned up almost zero signals. If I ever happen to be in that area again, I guess it would not hurt to pan it over again, but I have to say, I won't be making a special trip out there again.
