My pumpkin patch was finally chosen by the Great Pumpkin, and.....

Wait, wrong story.

Scored my first gold ring today, in the surf of a Hawaiian beach:



The beach is so clean that I dig almost every target, both to verify my target ID and to practice recovery, because I'm still pretty new at this.

I knew it was a good target, but thought it was going to be a quarter. I was happy to be wrong. It's two-tone white/yellow and stamped 14k on the inside. I won't know how much it weighs until I get home to my scale.

I continued to hunt until the surf grew high enough that it was beating me up pretty good.
 
great job on your first! feels so good don't it:?:that's one of the things about this hobby I love the most,,,,every gold feels the same,,,,I found one almost exactly like that a couple months ago,,,,bet it ends up weighing around 8 to 9 gs,,,,cha ching,,,,GL HH
 
Congrats on the first golf ring, and 14k, not bad. My first was only 10k. still have it.
 
Congrats!! That might be the least amount of trash I haven't seen before. Haha. I am hoping to find some gold in Hawaii soon too! :)
