Man oh Man, what a day! I was just about to turn off my detector and leave the beach when I decided to go ahead and detect up to my truck, good thing I did, just as I turned to head towards my truck I got a signal, dug it and bingo a 26.5 gram Platinum wedding ring. I sold it for $735.00, I know I could have sent it to the refineries and got $150 to $200 more, but I needed to get a few things, like now, so I sold. The storms have really brought in the goodies around here. Gene

You did great, it's amazing how so many good finds are made at the end of the day while walking back to your vehicle, has happened to me finding silver coins like that several times. HH

When you pick one of thoes babys up from the sand you know its not white gold right away cause of the weight alone. I hit 2 in on one weekend (its somwere in my posts) never befoe and never since have I hit again. Good for you, All the best, Billy

Gene, i was about to post my finds from Mexico but after seeing your Platinum decided my silver and few gold were not all that respectable

 

[GENE EDWARDS]

Gerry, Post your stuff I'd like to see them, along with everyone else, Gene
