Found the BIG DADDY of 9k Rings

Went out yesterday again for what was supposed to be a full days hunt,but my Scoop handle snapped cutting it short by half a day

Happy with the results for the half a day though
Here is the Silver for the day.

Verdict is still out on this one....cleaned up like Silver...?

And the Gold

And then out came....what I first thought was the top of a brass pipe due to the size

No distinctive marks on it,but I will go and inquire in the area where I found it to see if anyone lost a whopper like this

Two hunts for one little Silver ring

Nothing much in two hunts to post about

My Best Day Water Detecting...3 Gold,13 Silver and 120 Coins

So I decided to go out Yesterday...bad weather and all
Spent almost the whole day in the water,which turned to be worthwhile being pretty darn cold
A nice variety of jewellery this time...Sterling Rings,toerings,earrings and Gold Rings and earring
I will let the pics tell the rest :)

All the finds

A break down of the Coins

Junk Jewellery

And All the GOOD STUFF :)

Sterling Items

 And the Best for last GOLD

Some Finds for the last 6 outings

I vanished for a while and have not detected for almost half a year....
Got my life sorted and back into it full steam again

So far the strike rate for the ever so elusive gold has not been bad....3 golds in the 6 trips


First trip out was a night detect at Waiake Bay and came away with this 9ct signet ring

Gold no.2 Came from the water at Taka with Max...a small but realtively heavy(5-6g) 22ct signet ring

And no.3 was this morning from Cheltenham....a dainty plain band(from the colour I would gues maybe 14ct
Thanks Chris for leaving that behind :))...I see on your blog you were there yesterday....I will be in touch with you sometime soon....need to get a spare battery for my Excal

And the two ugly Silvers deserves a pic I suppose

HH:))

Finally...A long handle Sand/Beach/Water Scoop

I couldn't bring myself to pay the extravagant amounts asked for Scoops
from overseas,so I decided to attempt my own :)

Scoop measures 6inches(w) and about 4-5inches(h) and 8-9inches(d)

I searched and found some stainless sheet with holes in already
Cut the templates myself at home and took it down to a local factory who did the welding
professionally for next to nothing

I am quite pleased with the result :)

The Silver Magnet still works :)

Have not been out too much in the last few weeks

Did a few beaches looking for possible old stuff but just came away with
some bling
HH:)

Some Silver ....

Have been a bit lazy posting,so here are some of the Silver finds since last post
