Today's tracks, a classic holiday tune and an obligatory song...





I decided to hit up Ring Beach today, 3 hours...

My plan was to dig everything including iron. I thought if I dig enough iron and move enough junk around a keeper might show up, signals are getting pretty scarce lately there...

Guess what? That sucked, but I did find some cool square nails.
after about an hour I decided to just hunt as I normally do and found the usual suspects, and...

Gold #41 (ring #131) My first ever claddagh ring!! I have seen almost everyone except me find one it seemed... After 215 rings and not finding one it was sort of a small bucket list thing for me... This is the ghetto deluxe version featuring fake ice :no:.... 10K, 1.6 Grams...

:laughing: man you crack me up Ice :laughing: yeah can't argue with you on that :lol: digging iron sucks :lol: but every now and then you get lucky.
I've got an iron patch that needs thinning out just building up energy and willpower to do it :lol:
Cool nails all I get is blobs of rust, Congrats on the yella brother :yes:
 
Thanks everyone!

I am sort of hoping to achieve Salem Scott's goal of 52 (one per week) golds for the year but mother nature seems to have other plans...

If I kept at it I figure I might find some pretty cool relics as far as iron goes.. I have found military buttons dating back into the early 1800s, a seated dime, v nickels, and a couple Indians at the spot... I can only imagine there might be a couple tons if iron still there to find.. I just wish the scrap was higher on the ferrous items....
