When is finding a Titanium ring not disappointing? *2nd night hunt pics added*

Very nice hunt Slim !! You are right, that is a very cool Tiffany ring.

Thanks Jeff!

Nice score on the Tiffany Titanium ring. You could resell that for quite a bit too. Congrats on the other finds :)

Thanks sandgroper! Yea people pay good money just for the Tiffany brand name :yes:

Great hunt! It is always nice to see fellow socal hunters getting the loot!

Thanks Nick93023!

Good Stuff Davy....

Let me know how it goes tonight.

Thanks Rich!

It may say "Tiffany & Co", and it may retail for $350 .... but ... I still feel sorry for the person who paid $350 for a titanium ring :sorry2:

Yup, and the overpriced craziness isn't over yet for this ring, I will give it a good clean up and toss it up on E-bay where it will probably sell for $100-$150 :yes:

Great hunt slim. On a side note years ago I realized that if people would buy pet rocks they’ll buy anything ever a titanium band marked Tiff & Co.

Thanks Numil! Yes very true, If they slapped their hallmark on a turd it would sell for $100 :lol:

Nice set of clinkers and sinkers. Good work under wave action pressure. That's a hazard us dirt diggin' land lubbers don't have to deal with.
Beautiful photo shoot line-up btw.

Thanks Foragist! I got a lot of respect for the land lubbin dirt diggers, lots of hard work diggin those targets out.

T&Co, SWEETNESS... Yea, though what has happened to them that they are making Ti rings?!?!?

Thanks BCD! Yea man, last year I found a T&CO ring made out of their special metal called "Rubido" which is pretty much all copper with a tiny bit of gold in the mix. After a major clean up I was able to sell it on Ebay for a ridiculous amount :yes:

cool finds congrats :D


Thanks brncofan!

Well there is a market for them for some unknown reason. Put the company logo on it and sell it for huge profit.
I found a T&Co silver ring this week. It’s silver and it’s MSRP is less than the Ti above.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they have tungsten carbide rings too. Who could have guessed that the metal of drill bits and saw blades would be the metal of jewelry.

I thinks it’s a big joke on us all.

Whats even worse is the silicone rings they are advertising non stop on you tube! :lol:

Precisely. It looks nice to our senses of "finds" that the cost-when-new is such & such. Yet truth be told: We are not likely to realize any-such value .... on our end . The intrinsic value is nothing :blink:

The only hope of re-couping any of this $350, is to float it on ebay. And hope someone wants it as as end-consumer.

Tom, Tiffany has a great resale value on Ebay, I know by experience ;)

A branded Tiff Titanium ring? Thats 'messed' up right there! Whats the World coming to? Talk about a cusser of a find! Whats next? Plastic Faberge eggs? Anthracite Black diamonds? Harbor Freight branded jewelry? Lustrium Class rings? Naugahyde letterman jackets? Where is this heading?

Tiff gonna be selling Stainless Steel 9/16 boat dock washers for $200 per dozen? Maybe some nice Tiff Tungsten bullet weights for the discriminating Bass fisherman who is environmentally conscious for $300 a pack?? They may as well!...This is so horrible I shudder at the thought, amazed at the unabashed marketing and ignorance of the Gen Pop!! Thank God for the Asians and Indians who recognize PM's residual value and prefer GOLD!

I sure hope you can offload that worthless mutherhubbard for near retail price to a greater fool than the original...They are quite common now a days it seems...Shouldnt be no problem...Let us know..

Thanks Mud! Hey it's not completely worthless, it does have about .05 grams of silver on it :laughing:

That is an amazing hunt. Congrats! I've only pulled one titanium ring before but despite the oddity of a T&Co. ring, I think thats really awesome. Well done.

Thanks Saltshaker!


Nice hunt man, anything tiffany is a great find! I bet if they put out their own line of pulltabs they would sell for at least 75 bucks...

Thanks Z! Don't give Tiffany any ideas! :D

Nice score! Congrats

Thanks goodtimecharlie!

Hey Slim, Congrats on finding a good beach to hunt and the treasure! I had no idea that Tiffany made those- may be time to take a closer look at some of my "junk" rings! :yes:

Thanks George! David Yurman sells Ti rings too, keep an eye out for those :yes:

Nice hunt, should be able to get a few $$ for it

Thanks Saoirse! For sure!

Really ? That's good to know. I won't be so quick to toss my tungsten rings in the trash next time. At least .... if they bear the hallmark "tiffany" :cool:
 
Outstanding haul! And you must have collected about $7 in clad. Excellent work and great photos.

Thanks Dirty Nails!

Nice assortment of finds, you got a little of everything. Cool on The T&Co. Congrats!

Thanks Jam!

Way to go Dave. Glad you are getting some good hunts in. Hope they continue to produce gold.


Thanks Josh! Hit me up next time your in town, we gotta get a hunt in.

First of all Royal Congrats on a great hunt! As for zeemang's Tiff & Co. pull tabs, just think what a 6 pack of Tiffany & Co. beer would cost!! :shock: GOOD LORD! :laughing::laughing::laughing:

Thanks KT! Hey I wouldn't mind finding a Tiffany bottle cap or pull tab! Might have to float the idea to the o'l Tiffany head quarters :D
