Pretty exciting day for me....went to a local lake beach and found my first Gold! And little while later found what looks to be a Silver ring laying right on top of the sand, that had gold electro plate - we think it might actually have a real little diamond in it.
37494

Found some clad as well...
37495

and hubby found a 1971 Gold plated Half Dollar plus a lot of clad...
37496

He found a spill, but it was zinc pennies - he finally got tired of digging them up. All in all another great day with the AT Pro's!

Thank you, I was very excited and that it's a claddagh was even better - I've already reshaped it on my ring mandrel ;)

Thank you all. It was a great day, and hopefully we'll give it another go today. It's going to be colder today, so we'll see how long we're out there for. We are waiting for a test kit to arrive to test the other ring, if it is silver it's pretty heavy.
