So a little bit of info first: Kohimarama is a sanded beach and it is hunted heavily and frequently . The beach base is actually mud and clay- heavy items supposed to sink up to that layer and stop.
So at a low tide i went to couple of "pockets" but unfortunately they were empty- no gold for me. got some coins though.
When about 10-30 i noticed a lot of people start coming to the beach taking spots on dry send- so quickly decided to shift to dry sand. There were a lot of kids and all were watching me. Sometimes it is annoying when people constantly ask if i have found something or "what are you looking for" but when kids come around and ask if "Are you looking for treasure, mister" i can not resist to make a pirate expression :D
Actually i did find a treasure when one of the kids was watching me- there was some sort of metallic dish buried in the sand with toys in . So when i dug it up and gave to the kid- he was really excited. ! ><
Anyway. It took me only 20 minutes at dry sand to pull that really nice silver ring - that i am most happy about as $$$ wise i just got 6.30$ that makes me .50 short braking even for bus fare :/
But again - it is all good as ii had a wonderful morning and a good work out (better than a jogging)
* A key
* Sinker
* small bell
* beer opener

Beer opener and spoon go into the bin though. I keep all keys and will make a big stand some time.
Ring close up with 925 stamp :D
Tomorrow is a trip to St Helliers or maybe somewhere else. haven't decided yet.
Hope you like these as well and see you soon
Congrats on the silver Max. Nice ring. Looks like a fairly new drop as still shiny.
ReplyDeletePity no more goldies but I think that is just due to too many hunting there.
Well done :) Sweet looking ring!
