Default 1st Gold Ring!

Hi happy hunters....... My family and I went to look for buried treasure on Coronado beach California, there on the shore is a sunken ship from the 30's, the name of the ship is the Monte Carlo. She was a gambling ship in 1936 anchored of the coast 3 miles were it is illegal to gamble, a big storm washed her ashore and no one claimed her due to the fact it would be illegal. The wreck is totally under the sand now and has been picked over through the years, but I wanted a shot at it with my ace 250. If there were any silver dollars left I wanted to find them! It was nice hunting, I had the MD in coin mode and it was dead silent for 30 min ...then ding! I told my wife to check it out with the trowel and gold gold gold!!!!! Not part of the treasure but I'm not complaining! If you have google earth, here are the coordinates to the site 32 40' 26-2" , -117 10' 22-7" .........
