I bought my Beach Hunter I.D. last summer and have found many things with it, but on July 28th I had a big surprise coming to me. I found 2 diamond rings in the same spot in a local swimming hole. I was about waist deep in water and I got a real nice medium beep from my Beach Hunter so I scooped up on the first try with my sand scoop a beautiful what looked like a white gold engagement ring, I couldn't really tell for sure so I stuck it in my pouch, by this time I was pretty excited and put my coil back down there in the same spot and got another great medium beep and scooped out on the third try and pulled up a band with a bunch of small stones in it, by this time I was really really excited, after that I didn't detect very long wondering if these rings were the real McCoy so I packed up and headed home, cleaned all my finds, got out my eyeloop and checked the markings on the inside and they were both 14k and looked like a matched set to me, so I quick posted pics and a story on Whites Metal detecting forum, and headed for the gemologist and he confirmed they were a matched set and probably sold new for between 5 and 6 hundred dollars. I'll tuck both these rings away for my future trip to Alaska to hunt for nuggets with my MXT. I'll be flying high for a long time after these finds. I've always owned Whites metal detector's since 1989 and the Beach Hunter I.D. came through for me on that day.
