It's been raining hard around hear for almost 3 days, I thought I better get out this morning before the rain stated again, boy am I glad I did. yesterday the storm surf delivered a good cut along are beaches, even though it was high tide I had a about a ten foot area below the cut that I was able to work. I was finding coins and dodging the incoming surf for almost an hour and had a signal that sounded like silver but was breaking up when I past the coil over the target, it urned out to be a nice silver charm bracelet continued on for about another 10 minutes and hit a target that was strong but with lower pitch, possibly a nickle turned out to be this unbelievable ring, couldn't believe it was real, but then I saw the 14k mark and new I had something special.
Turns out it has 16 4 point diamonds on each side with 6 larger diamonds set in the floral design in the center of the ring. 9.3 grams of 14k white gold.
This is one of the nicest rings I have found!
Update: My wife must be able to read my mind, as soon as she walked in the door she said what did you find? Oh well it was mine for a while.
She deserves it for putting up with me.

Wow!!! That's a beautiful ring.
I saw a news article that the Pacific coast will have a lot of storm activity this year, hopefully nothing bad, but hopefully enough so all of you can get down to all that gold that's just waiting for a detector coil to pass over.
Congratulations.
