CONGRATS on your first! :hello2::hello2::hello2:

That's a nice chunky one..do you know the weight?

Yes..if you keep looking you will be finding more...I've had dry spells of 6 months but then get a dozen gold in a month's time.

You just have to keep trying!

No markings have to get my first test kit. Its only 4.3 grams in weight. Iet u all know the karat. Thinking of getting sponge etched on it. No marks no value just spot. Being my first gold gives it value to me though and something to pass on.

Nice ring sponge. Do you think having no markings on it means its old?
