Hit a new beach today on my lunch break. Searched for about two hours and found only about 40 cents and a lot of aluminum can parts & pull tabs. I was about to turn around and head to the car, but something told me to go for 10 more minutes. I'm glad I stayed...The very next signal, I dug two scoops of wet sand and out popped a nice .925 silver ring with 10 black stones. It wasn't until I got home and put the diamond tester to work that I found out they were real black diamonds! HECK YEAH!!! Love seeing those rings in the scoop!

Happy Hunting!

-Nate

Nice ring! Isn't it funny how fate or your gut makes things happen... your gut said to go on and you found the ring.... my coin ring last week I would have walked right by but I stepped to the side to let another hunter have his line and found that coin ring on the next swing after stepping to the side in the water....

Sounds like me when i was working a grid pattern. Miles of beach early to sit and this lady sits right where i was heading. Sometimes i think people do it on purpose. Anyway i moved down a ways and first target was a 5 diamond ring:lol: I thanked her in my mind where she couldn't hear me:yes:

Good hubby and I hope to do the same one day!


On a side note, the use of none-traditional stone colors seems to be the prevailing trend among newly weds. The last three engagements (from my peers) have used engagement rings with dark sapphire or black diamonds. So even though its a silver band, if wifey changes her mind, I'm sure it would sell on ebay.
 
Your jeweler cleaned it up really nice. Man, that is a pretty ring for silver. First I have seen with real diamonds. Bet your wife lets you detect more often. :D
