Biggest 22k gold ring I've ever found!

Finally was able to get out to the beach after a long winter. Ice still on the lake but temperature today was 34c. I was working in the wet sand and got a nice crisp loud signal on my AT pro. Using the small 5/8 DD coil, I took a scoop,..still in the hole, and another scoop,..still deeper. I took 3 pretty deep scoops and then finally on the 4th scoop I had it, dumped it out on the side and when I scanned over, it blasted my ears ringing up a solid 79 on my AT pro. My heart was pumping when I seen that bright buttery yellow and the size of it, I knew I had a good one 22k at 17grams...cha ching!

Thanks Bill! I’m now using the XP Orx at my fresh water beaches. It’s an awesome detector, it goes deep and is super light and fast. I’ve found 2 gold rings with it since I bought it last May. I still use my AT pro but mainly now for hunting parks because I know it so well. The At pro has found me quite a bit of gold over the yrs. Haven’t bought the 920ix yet, hopefully for Christmas. Good luck Bill!

Yours is the first post in 5-6 months I've read since being off this Summer/fall and it really put a smile on my face and created a deep urge to grab my detectors and head south from Ohio to Florida...lets pack the bags, dear.

Glad it gives you the urge to go look for gold lol. This thread is a few yrs old actually. I found that fat chunker in the spring of 2016. It was my favourite season and best find to date. It was perfect beach conditions that yr with the lakes lower down, there was so much wet sandy shorelines from lack of rain. Lots of good targets that summer. This find keeps coming back to life on here lol. It’s a good sign for next summer.
