Default Six ring Day

We went to Treasure Island (near Tampa) for a little weekend get away. It was our 40th wedding anniversary and my nieces 40th birthday so we all got together with some family and rented a house on the beach.
So I managed to slip away long enough to find myself six rings. I couldn't stay in the water I got in the water and found the gold ring (marked 375) 9K ring right of the bat with a diamond chip, but just couldn't take the pounding anymore so I finished up hunting the wet and pull a 925 band out of the wet and all the others are POS. I found a charm and when I pried it open it had these inside.(see photo) The other I thought was one of those crushed pennies but it was a charm type thing from sea world.

Congrats on the great hunt and finds. Great rings. A ring, is a ring, is a ring, POS or not, its still a ring.

The cartoon faces on those charms are from " The Nightmare Before Christmas" a Movie made by Tim Burton.
