    ....because I know "red" is his favorite color. The best of yesterdays hunt.

    Haven't been posting much but I wanted to run this by Dan.

    Thanks Dan. It's been a tough year for gold but some of the finds have been quality.

    what is that stone?

    It's hard to believe but I never had it checked out because I believe it's synthetic. However, If you look closely at both,there's not a scratch on either stone, and that's saying something for rolling around in the ocean for almost 100 years.

    If you notice the etching on the 14K ring I found yesterday is worn a lot from the sand and elements but the stone is fine.

    Nice ring. The color to me looks like Rhodolite Garnet or Spinel. Not sure I have seen the latter in jewelry but they say it is really hard and excellent for jewelry.
