Default Fall beach hunting * West coast
Hit one of my favorite strands of sand today at first light. What an outstanding fall morning in Calif. My Excal was on fire with the clad. Lots of dimes and quarters with even a dollar coin thrown in. I was excited when I dug the SMALL 14K gold ring. Saw the 14kt and a hallmark when I pulled it out of the scoop. When I got home, I noticed the "P" behind the 14K... Just a junk ring. .... Next time! Nice day to be next to the big pond none the less.

If the ring is not new it could be 14 k gold. I found a 14k p that was. The p did stand for plumb. Nice finds.
