Default 2 day swimmin' hole finds (Jewelry only)

I took the photos after I got back this afternoon. Today I found the small childs 14K and ruby ring. Not too bad for an afternoon, about 5 hours total time. I used the Whites XLT today, it's a tough machine to learn, I dug more pop caps and tabs than I thought possible. It seems to change it's electronic mind aimlessly from jewelry to caps.
I took more clad today also, 1.48 but wasn't really looking for that, I was in a gold mode on the Whites.

Wink Nice rings.

Nice rings. Congratulations on finding a good hunting area.
Eventually you will have to hunker down and dig everything out of there. Maybe set some boundaries and work it to death over a long period of time. Hard telling how much treasure the trash is masking right now.
Happy days are here! Have fun hunting this and similar sites in your area.

Man you did good. I am learning my XLT and I know it is going to be very good when I do. Did you find any of this stuff in the water or all on shore?
