I read the posts on re-sizing pictures and finally did it. I had a week in Paradise last May and in 6 days of detecting found 6 gold rings, some silver rings and the bracelet in addition to 1785 coins totaling $235+. Many of the coins and most of the gold were visually sighted and picked up. The only rings that were detected in the photos are the two wedding bands The ring with diamonds is 18k and the stone is a cracked jade. I can't post more pictures of other finds. One day a man approached me to suggest that I move down the beach from where I was because he had picked up a handful of coins. I hesitated moving because I was doing fine where I was, when I did move I started getting so many signals that I had trouble pinpointing, while there I saw the glint of gold and pulled it up and put it my pocket, shortly after there was more gold in the same spot so scooped it up and into the pocket as well not knowing what I had. A few minutes later I saw the ruby ring rolling down the sand in the surf so scooped it up and headed back to the hotel. Upon checking later, I found that the first find was the bracelet, the second handful was the earring and the herring bone ring together, so in about 15 minutes I had 4 gold finds and none with the detector. That day in five and a half hours detecting I found 480 coins totaling $55.50 in addition to the gold. I logged all my finds by day but won't bore you with details the pictures tell more of the story. I snorkeled and found $46.00 in bills and a pair of Dolce Gabanna sun glasses worth several hundred dollars. My daughter's friend detected with me and for a first time hunter, found a little over $78. The water was too rough to go out past your knees, so will have to keep the location a secret until I can get out deeper. SORRY! I have never had such luck in so short a time. Thanks for looking.
