It amazes me that the store price for such a ring is ranging form $599 to $1025 yet I would be lucky to get $100 for it.
My friend and fellow TH'er Dave has had even worse luck, having only managed a tungsten and a titanium ring from the same area.
That being said I have been finding quite a bit of silver, lots of change and some useful items during my hunts. As I do not work anymore (I found it was cutting into my TH'ing time too much) I hunt almost every day, usually in 2-3 hour stints.
I have made slings for both my sand scoops which reduces arm fatigue. I now wear a magnetic necklace that a friend gave me. I got whiplash some years ago and would suffer severe neck discomfort after a lot of hunting, but since wearing the necklace my neck is fine!!
Today is the 4th of July and I am on the beach. It is packed. Too packed to hunt so I am biding my time.
I have repaired the headphones on the Surf Pro and cleaned them with charcoal lighter fluid (found on the beach). They are looking good.
The wife is at her brothers for a couple of days so I am enjoying alone time with my dog.
I finally broke the gold drought last week with an 8.4g 14k white gold men's ring with 7 diamonds. Eureka!!
Although, as I said, the beaches are sanded in, every now and then a small wall or cut will appear.
I had been eyeing one such cut while dry sanding and hit it on three consecutive mornings.
First morning I got the gold, second found silver but by the third morning it was filling in again and I just managed coins.
Well Summer is in full swing and I will be too.
