| Diamond Gold and Amethyst Ring Find. Find and photo by Warren D. |
If you have been reading this blog, you've read about Warren Dennison before. He has found and returned some valuable rings. The stories were covered in the news and here. Warren stored up a lot of good karma. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

| Different View of the Same Ring. Find and photo by Warren D. |
This find is a very exceptional one-of-a-kind item. Research could reveal the owner. It has been identified by no less than Robert Marx and Karl Fismer as being a probable 1715 Fleet item. A cob was found nearby. It was found on a Treasure Coast beach, and is obviously shown uncleaned.
There is a WESH2 News video with Warren showing his find that you can probably find on the internet.
Congratulations Warren! Super great find!

You can see the sandy conditions and the nice smooth one-foot surf.
With these summer conditions, you have to be alert to rare opportunities. Some of those occur are very localized situations. As you can see, the prevailing beach conditions are poor, but there are always those little spots ( some man made and some natural ) that provide opportunities. They are rare and not always easy to find, but they are out there.
You can barely see it, but the small dot is a salvage boat working in the distance.
Seaweed is generally a bad sign, but there are rare occasions when a layer of seaweed can cover a newly exposed good spot. In this case, under the seaweed was newly accumulated sand.
Down the beach was a spot where there was no seaweed. Some older items were found there - mostly iron.
I also found some very old fossils.
There are still a couple tropical disturbances on the map - one near Yucatan and the other way south in the Atlantic. The second is organizing and has a long way to go before hitting land.
Happy hunting,
