Dancing with a Bandido..

[pinenut]

Well, I must have looked damned silly today, dancing around with my detector up over my head in one hand, and stupidly grinning at this ring in my other. Out detecting another sled run for a couple hours this morning; same area I found a nice, fancy 14K earring a couple weeks back.

This 14K ring weighs in at 8 grams on my inaccurate (old) digital scale, and it even fits my fat pinky; not that I'd wear it. Also found a little clad, and what's probably the smallest token I've dug so far.

Found with my favorite Bandido II μmax/5.75. Ring was 3" down in the dirt, about two-thirds down the sled run.
Thanks again, snow dummies!

Man oh man. That is a nice gold find. I'd bet that there's a few more out there to be found.

Soooo very sweet of a find and your earlier 14k Gold earing with your Bandido Pinenut, congrats! High of 25C, no snow finally.
