The water was a little rough, but I decided to take my Dual Field for a quick spin this PM and in about two hours of hunting found over a dozen coins (all recent I think) most of them showing the effects of salt water exposure.

One lead weight, a few pieces of junk metal and this gold ring.

The "stone" is badly abraded and it's impossible to tell what it is, but in a 10K setting it likely isn't valuable.

Hey ---gold is gold, right?

YES!
I have not found any gold yet. Course I kinda taylor towards old coins.

Is the stone a rose quartz? Interesting old ring. Nice find.

Congrats on that very nice ring! It does look old, good hunting, Beale.

Jeff,

There is an old saying that gold, like all treasure, is where you find it!!

Jewels have been lost for as long as there have been jewels and if you are out there searching for them sooner or later you will find gold!!

Gold jewelry is more likely to be found where it's most often lost, but has been found in yards and farmers fields, so you never know.

The best odds are in the water at a public beach with the costlier jewels found at resort beaches.

Keep hunting Friend and you will find gold one fine day!!

Hi T,

I'm pretty sure the "stone" is synthetic!

A close look at the facet edges will show how worn and rounded they are.

I find few "natural" stones wear that way.

This ring was buried among large cobble-stones and not awash in the sand, so it was somewhat protected too.

It's hard to even tell what color it is supposed to be.

Thanks for your reply,

CJ
