I've been swinging this ATP since March, and today I found my first gold ring! It's not much, but it's a start! It's stamped 14K and "had" a little stone on it. It fell off somewhere between the lake and my house, lol. It rang up a solid 42, and I came real close to not digging it...just because I was getting worn out digging all those dang pull tabs. I'll be going to a new beach tomorrow morning, if the storms hold off.
