Had a quick hunt today after work on the wet sand on a beach I have been to quite a lot! Last few hunts proved hopeless, and today was getting really frustrated, having found a ton of junk, and a really worn penny - albeit only there for 1 hour!
(With the ATX you just have to dig in the right places. ..not high up on a busy beach, save the VLF s for that job. Keep down low on the wet sand, less targets and a higher trash to treasure ratio!)
About to call it quits and then a faint signal......
dug and turned out to be a nice 14k (585) female gold and sapphire ring (4 wee diamonds)...yahoo! pretty small and fits the wife, so she's happy!
Then another dodgy, DODGY signal...didnt sound good....what the hell, lets dig anyway. Saw a silver coloured ring.....but, hmmm, it's just too heavy.....I assumed it was white gold and called it a day, drove home to clean up!
home and cleaned and checked the hallmarks....950 platinum, maybe 12-13 grams! YAHOO!
