Default 3 Gold,two silver at the beach

Met up with Imalookin today.Man we got a rain storm! Think my eyeballs are still sandblasted!Found the Sterling St.Christopher first.Then the 10k signet ring.Thought they were junk at first.After the electrical storm,hit the Sterling ring.Then the 14k Italy Herringbone necklace.Then the 14k signet ring.The necklace i believe was spinning in the current coming over the sandbar.Man what a day for me.I needed this i can't tell you how much! Greg was nice enough to let me borrow his acid testing stone.Figured it was all real.But i suck at guessingBy the way Greg! Next dinner is on me! You won't even have to split that gold ring like Bigpoppa suggested
Thanks for looking!

What a great day to hunt. First hour was OK then the sky fell. After it cleared enough you hit some nice targets! Nice to see gold from that beach. It is really sanded in though. I think you got it all.

You should have removed that SS chain from the pendant. Don't mix precious metals with !!!!. :-)

Still didn't find a gold grille. Appreciate the company Greg! Now i gotta take some time to look for my acid test stone in the litterbox.I won't mix them up.They'd never be able to pass yours.

I like those Herringbone chains, but they kink real easy and then they never look the same after that. Looks like the lobster claw clasp failed. Nice hunt

I got a big stainless lip on my aluminum scoop.Lucky it didn't cut it in half.Was laying on the lip of the scoop as i pulled it out.Of course a little more current and i'd have probably lost it.The herringbone ones don't drop straight down if they fall out of the scoop.

I'm hitting the light gold.But you got to work to find it.Glad we don't count gas money,or we would all be in the hole.

I plan to be there Tuesday through Friday. If you can get time lets all do a DF hunt low tide! Put signs up that say "Beach Closed To Detecting" so we can build up some goodies!
