I am going to take a break from hunting for a while so yesterday was it for a while. I got my heaviest ring of the year (9 grams).The stone is about 1 ct but is no good. I have hunted 51 days with 130 hrs. This spring is by far my worst ever. Most of the good beaches are sanded in and the weather has been bad (wind and rain) I have 43 pieces at 123 grams. I will hope to do better starting in June. I wish everone great success in their hunts to come.

Let's see, 123 gms, at 10kt (42%) x current gold price x let's say $1100 and oz at 31.1 gms per... uhm..carry the one..., dropped the pencil, crap, starting over, ANYWAY, you don't have to eat at McDonald's for awhile.
Nice haul.

Thanks:

Lets see!!! 123 grams of "18k" @ $26.40 a gram =$3247.20 for 125 hours = $25.97 per hr Which is more than I ever made working. And this is fun.

Les , you are a major inspiration to me as regards gold ring detecting ! Last year I finally
started digging the gold ring range - primarilly the pull tab nickel area with my MXT , I found
5 or 6 , one of which was 18k -10 grams - I'm a turf hunter at this point - way inland !
but someday I hope to check some beaches . Blessings to you - and thank you ! Argentium.
 

I got to get a beach like that!
Great job digging all that gold.
Congrats,

Thanks Arg.

Thank you for the compliment. I guess I should show some pix of the trash and coins I have to scoop to get the gold. On a good day, where I get 2 or 3 gold, plus 30 - 40 coins I might scoop 40 - 50 pieces of trash. I might accually will have to scoop 300 time for that many targets. Thats a lot of scoopinf for 3 hrs.
