Default found $500 poker chip
Possible key fob.Also found a stainless ring.What you call a heartbreaker when you dig it up in the wet sand.Stainless is the new white gold.LOL!
If you are interested in the poker chip,will sell for half price at $250.Call 1-800-BenPunk'd.May even throw in an old rusty muffler

That is the most beautiful stainless steel ring I have ever seen, no joke.

Is that a genuine casino chip or just some toy?

I thought chips were always redeemable for face value by law? May want to check into your chip a bit more.

This one has a hollow back.Couldn't find one with this color pattern.Never saw a real poker chip.This one is made out of pot metal or cast aluminum.The stainless ring is the best one i found so far.I found a 14k wedding ring this style in white gold.Was hoping that was what this was when i first saw it.

Chips are only able to be redeemed for face value for a limited amount of time

That is a nice ring for stainless... if I saw that in my scoop before picking it out I would probably thought it was platty or white gold...

Is it marked stainless? Did you test it? It looks too good.

He showed it to me on the beach and the outside looks white gold but the inside is shiny. Beauty of a ring anyway. He could just make out the etching saying stainless. What a heart breaker. I thought he had something since both of us were getting poor results. I found a junk toe ring with a stone. Thought it might be silver until I got my glasses and could see the plating coming off. Man, that gold has really hidden itself lately.

You, Greg, and I need to line up a hunt soon.
Between the three of us, we should be able to come up with a nice copper or tungston ring. Lol Very nice ring! Lean pickings out there so far.

Marty, lets go to that place. I mentioned it to Larry. He is probably out there right now. Hope not! Oh dang, opened my big mouth again. Kidding aside, lets all head there soon. I work all week but a night hunt might be in my future.

It's marked 316 stainless.From working with treatment plants i know 316 stainless is high grade stainless.It isn't like the stainless utensils we eat with.Thinking we'll see more and more of these with the price of gold.These and Tungsten carbide are getting more and more common.Still a nice looking ring though!

Sounds good Marty! Me and Greg already took turns babysitting that kid at Ponte Vedra.He'll be following you this timeStands beside your coil during your swing.That's why i didn't find a gold ring
