The tides and the surf looked promising so I went detecting after work one day last week. There were small cuts at a couple of beaches and I found a good amount of targets over several hours in the wet sand.
Again I split time between the Dual Field and the Equinox 800 and both performed pretty well although I was a little disappointed and a bit surprised that I didn't find any gold, especially, with so many coins and rings. When I got home and emptied my finds pouch I looked closer at one of the darkened silver rings that I remembered finding and saw some markings on the ring's edge. As I rubbed it with my thumb I could start to make out "....& CO"!!
It's been over a year since I found anything from Tiffany & Co. but I knew that this ring would clean up nicely.
Apparently, this is an older piece but I did find one listed on E-bay for nearly $400! I don't actually remember which detector I was using when I found this ring. It was very early in the morning and very dark outside. I just remember thinking it was "blackened" silver, put it in my pouch and moved on to the next a many targets. It sure is great to be pleasantly surprised when you get home. More often it's the other way around- things that look good at night have, on many occasions, turned out to look not so nice the next morning! GL&HH!
