Got an Itch, go metal detecting

[mynah]

Hey all,

I decided to go out for an evening hunt last night after being inspired by all of your posted finds. You'd have to laugh at this, it was frigggin cold, Honolulu standards. Any way, I wasn't getting very many targets in the water, hot rocks, Bobbie pins, and some clad. Chattering teeth and pruning finger tips, and among other things, I started to head back to the truck. As I was swinging the wet sand back to the truck, I thought about surfdiggers videos and his explanations of sand movement and where targets might be. I found a small saturated area of sand where the water would recede lower then the surrounding area. What the heck, I thought and concentrated my efforts in and around the area. No targets. Shucks no joy on this theory. As I took approximately three steps away from the search area I heard a sharp crisp tone from my White's PI Pro 950. Dug in with my hand and pulled out this tiny ring. At first, I thought it was either a silver or platinum ring due to the low light conditions. But when I got home, the wife pulled out my stash and said it was a gold ring, cool, I thought. After a closer look, it's plated. Non the less, definitely a good addition to my ring collection.

Thanks surfdigger for the vids.

Aloha, Ike

Looked at the picture before I finished reading. I thought it looked good too. It's still a ring though! HH!

I hope to get o go as found flat washed are yesterday and know some has shifted to somewhere, I am still looking for forst gold. Get to Jensen or coming give me a call and I will show you area I hunt. Don't find much but it is close and available so I use it.

Surf Diggers theories have really worked for me. I came across a ripple trough the other day as the tide was rushing out and on the outer edge of it I picked up 6 coins within 6 feet of each other, all laying just slightly exposed on the surface. I detected the first one and noticed it was visible, then saw the others without the detector LOL. Surf Diggers theories are pure gold... as you have discovered.!
