Got out for an hour or two this past weekend. My local beach is majorly sanded in right now. Most of my two hours was spent listening to the hum of my threshold and taking in the scenery. I decided to go closer to where people were swimming but was definately swinging to my car, when BAM!! A target hits me so hard it nearly blows my ear drums out. Sounded really good too, like it was wispering, gold...gold...gold...could it be? Took one scoop, nothing. Then on the second a glimmer of hope jumped right out of my scoop and into my pouch. It appeared to still be warm from someones finger. Heres what it was. Thanks for looking!

If you were wearing a blood pressure monitor when you looked in the scoop it would probably shoot up about 40 points I would guess.

Thanks for the support guys and gals!! Romy, this ring is not marked but tested to at least 14k with an acid test. Cant really see it in the picture but it is a tri color.
