    More Gold in the water and old coins

    Sunday I got the 14k 1958 wedding band so I was itching to get back in the water. I decided to go back there the folowing two nights after work to see if I could get more gold.

    I just knew there had to be more gold since I was getting alot of old coin targets in the same area. Wednesday I got alot of old coins again but no gold. I went back again tonight and sure enough....the glint of gold found its way to the bottom of the scoop

    The ring was only 10k this time but it does have a nice gemstone. In the two nights I hunted, I also managed two more buffalo's(1919 & 1937), two V-Nickles(1895 & 1902), six mercs including a 1916 but no D mint, 4 wheats, and cast battle ship made in the USA lol

    Get out in the water people, the gold is finally starting to reveal itself.
