My hunting Buddy Frank, Mr. Dual Field, Diablo and I spent a little over 4 hours at the local swimming areas today searching for non-existant fresh drops.
We removed lots of junk metal, mostly bottle caps, my total targets recovered= 37 including a couple of nasty fish-hooks and a sinker, a little over a dollar in clad coins, a smashed .22 bullet, a huge, black stainless steel (316) ring and a little jewel of an old, gold ring.

The band is worn enough that the seam is parted and the hallmark is gone.
It tests at 14K.
As I was leaving the water headed home, a scantily clad lady asked if I had found anything good.
My usual reply will nearly always bring a smile to the person's face----------------- "41/4 hours of peace and quiet and about a $1,000.00 worth of exercise!!"
