Went straight to the beach after work since the news had been talking about all the big surf showing up during the week. The beach cams looked somewhat promising also and sure enough when I got down to the wet sand it was obvious that a fair amount of sand movement had taken place. I pretty much dug targets every few feet or so for 3-4 hours although it there was quite a bit of trash along with about 100 coins.
It is in these kind of conditions that it would not be too surprising to scoop out a large gold band and I was finding lead fishing weights. However, I was happy to find my first gold (small) ring since February (really haven't hunted much during that time). Always fun to hunt when targets are plentiful and each scoop brings the real possibility of a special find.
GL&HH!

Nice work there Compass, you sure took advantage of it! I wonder how long this open Window will hold before the sand comes back in?....Around here its about 4hrs...so Yeah, very admirable hunting for you to get out in it and get on the Gold! Beauty!
I would love to dig one up but I just don't find many lead toys- period. I wanted one as a mascot since I served aboard a submarine while in the Navy.
