I had to work most of the holiday weekend but was able to get out to a beach I researched this week that no one uses anymore but was popular back in the day!

The first ring I got was this smashed 10k with a bust etched in the glass

59445

The other gold ring I got at the end of the hunt...this signet 12k???? I need to test it
59446
59447

I also got this 1903 IHP, 1954 D rosie, 1943 P war nickle, 45 D & 56 wheats...I cleaned the black off the silver coins with the baking powder, foil, hot water trick...worked great but smelled horrible!!!

59451

I also got this tiny tube of lipstick...old Avon

59448
59449

59450

I got few other cool items: 10k gf heart ring, old brass, heart pin, toy slow sign, clad ect...

A friend of mine asked me how many pull tabs and bottle caps do you need to dig to find a gold ring so I saved them all since the last one...I have not counted them yet!!!

Thanks for looking and good luck to everyone!!!

Great hunt, congrats on the gold! I agree, pull tabs are the worst, and they can ring up all over the spectrum.

You have some very nice fine Pastpersuit. I got wised up and don''t dig pull tabs, penny's or silver coins either! I Just dig gold, and platinum rings and jewelry with a my minelab CTX-3030 in the water on a Andy Sabisch Gold program. In all honestly I do dig an occasional pull tab when it's a if-e target. Good Luck. Budwiser
