I hit the beach nice and early this morning but still missed the low tide. I'm really not a morning person.
Found a couple of sinkers,some coins and then this old silver ring,so decided to slow down & do a thorough grid of the area.
Dug a couple of coins, a 1922 penny and then got a faint but nice repeatable sound .. four scoops,spread the pile and spotted this nice gold ring.
It's stamped 375, weight 5.5 grams, the little diamonds test good too.
The initials are C.R. I wonder if Chicago Ron ever visited Australia.
A soak in CLR & a good polish and it's looking much better .. Since been buffed & polished by a Jeweler
I finished up with 30 minutes along the high tide mark and scored this 375 gram hoop earring.
Another hot session again but worth the effort
