Got a call from an Old Hunting Buddy, Rich saying he was heading down to a local beach for a hunt and he asked if we might share a hunt. Well Mr. Dual Field, Diablo and This Old Hunter rarely pass a chance to hunt with a Water Hunting Friend!!
The wind made it a little difficult for me to hear those "soft" signals, but 36 targets still managed to find the way into my pouch.
Most of them were junk of course, but somehow I managed to end up with this small (A tight fit over the end of my pinky finger!) 10K ring and a nice chunky .925 ring too.

The silver was in the gravel near the water's edge and the gold was buried down in the stony substrate of a beach I have hunted for years as have several of my Friends. It came to light when I was chasing a piece of can slaw.
I put the aluminum in my pouch and recovered the ring from the same hole.
Later I dug another piece and dropped it in my pouch thinking it sure looked like the last one I placed in there.
When I sorted through the junk at my desk later the slaw was missing. I had recovered and lost it twice and had a gold ring for my troubles. (I'll be watching for that little devil on my next hunt!!)
