1. first variable is number of people (NP)
2. second is time or history. In other words. how long has it been a busy beech. Sone beaches are popular lately but may or may not have been in past years or decades.
3. third is how much jewelry of interest they wear.
3a. do they wear a lot.
First, remember that gold jewelry varies widely in quality and value. Some pieces are worth just a little while other pieces are worth thousands of dollars. Some beaches will have a lot of gold rings while others may produce fewer, but you must also consider the quality as well as the quantity. Both quantity and quality must be taken into account. One valuable ring can be worth more than many lower quality rings.
Of course, the first thing to consider when evaluating a beach for gold jewelry is the number of people that have been thee, not only now, but over a period of history, but some groups will lose more jewelry and some groups will lose more valuable jewelry.
There is a cultural element to consider. In South Asia and the Middle East, 22k gold jewelry holds particular cultural significance. 22k gold is often seen as the preferred purity level for traditional jewelry and is often used in wedding and other ceremonial jewelry.
In Florida, there are cultural pockets and that is reflected in where you will find more or better gold jewelry. Hollywood Beach, for example, was once a gathering spot for Canadian snowbirds and local youth. I don't know if that is true anymore, but back then you would find a lot of gold. The finds would include mostly low karat gold jewelry and some class rings, but not the most extravagant jewelry. There were other beaches though, where you wouldn't find as much jewelry, but where you would often find more expensive jewelry.
