First Ring

[Sompa]

First ring ever found......found this one on the beach, about 4 inches down. It says 10 k on the band, but I don't know what the "PSCO" means.

Nice ring first one or not. My first ring was a cheap silver plated toe ring found at the beach (Coin Beach). This was my second club hunt and the excitement was still there. You just got to love the ease of hunting a beach. Stroll, stroll, scoop, stroll, stroll, scoop! We all wish it was that easy!

Don't forget Spring Break. I have heard from more than a few folks that OC is terrific after Spring Break. I am hoping to get out there in a few weeks. I'm a couple hours away near Baltimore.

Sompa, Congrats on the nice ring. I've still not found any gold! I'll get there! My question to you is what kind of camera you have,and what you might have done to get that closeup shot. Thanks, poppop

Hey rtde3,
PM me the info on the Sandy Point hunt...sounds like fun. Is that the one where they have a kids hunt too? Trying to get my 9 y/o son interested. What club(s) are involved? I don't even know of any MD clubs around here.

POPPOP,
I used a Canon A80 camera. I messed around with it a little. First I tried to take a "super" close up that didn't work out so well. Then I backed off a little, took a hi res pic then used standard Microsoft Paint to zoom in close and crop for the end result. The original image was 1600x1200 pixels (second highest res available on the camera).

Hope this helps,

Sompa

I know of one for sure - Maryland Artifact Recovery Society (MARS) - from what I remember reading, they're having an open hunt on... October 5? At the beach also.
