I had a goal this year of doing more water detecting in the hopes of finding gold. I have been to a few beaches this summer and not found anything precious...just a lot of clad and trash. I think I have put in just 10 hours of beach detecting this year so I can't complain about not finding any silver or gold.
This past Saturday I visited a really small beach and after an hour or so I found a gold ring! The rush of a gold ring is so great. It has the word "Kuuipo" written on it which is Hawaiian for "sweetheart".
Thanks for looking! Jared
