Oh No! someone is in a big trouble!!! -Newlyweds

Another interesting hunt last night - a very sanded in beach, but!...
... i was wondering why my rings counter had "0" at PlT/PD .... so we changed that!

Found this nice Platinum Ring :


The ring metal value is about 250$NZD ,but what is more important- it has engraving with a name and a date..... and a date is DAY/ December 2014 ... So sad.. person just got married, went to the beach and lost it....

So what have i done so far: i called http://www.dia.govt.nz/Births-deaths-and-marriages
and was told that team that is authorised to access records to look up people who were married on the date and also match names are away till 5 January,

So, if couple married in NZ, i will be able to find them next week.

So for now feel free to share this on facebook and see if people will come up

HeartStopper Ring.....

Forgot to post this Episode of my detecting,

Went to Wet sand beach couple of days ago, IT was one of those moment, when you see glint of gold in the scoop... :


..But turns out a crappy plated Alloy.

Had an interesting find though - handmade Talisman in a shape of Horseshoe :


The rest of the finds (Silver cross on silver chain) :

The Earring is interesting as it was low signal on STX - right in the godl range, it has no corrosion as i would expect on any junk jewerly , also after scratching heavily - there is no other alloy and also kinda passes 9CT acid test, still not sure though. Weight exactly 7 Gram L
