Hey guys. Well i went to idaho this weekend. I only got in 1 hour and a half of detecting at a local elementary school. I know i playnned on going to the ski resort and the rodeo but they were too busy with people and they would be scowling at me because i would be diggin up their grass. Well anyway! MY uncle took me down to the elementary school after lunch. My first target was a penny, and i was hunting around the bike racks. I had it on the mode where i can get all coins plus silver. I walked over a target that i thought wwas underground. I got down to dig and i saw something smushed in the grass. All shiny!! Well As you can tell i swept it over with my detector. Yup it was a strong signal! I looked at it closer and then pulled it out! IT WAS A STERLING SILVER RING! ;D ;D ;D ;DIT HAS STERLING printed in it!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D I ran back to my uncle and told him and was like were stayin here! So i hunted the playground and within the next 15 minutes I GOT A LOW TONE SIGNAL! Now i thought it was a stupid nickel or foil but i saw a chain and i pulled it out! It turned out to be a GOLD BRACLET! I think its a plated gold braclet but it may be a gold one! It said Janeth on it! Some girl probably lost it. Anyway! I pulled Over $2 from that playground in the elementary school in 1 hour and 30 minutes! new Personal record! :) On sunday i went to a couple of fields. Got 16 cents and a bullet. The high school didnt turn up as much as i thought. Maybe i was hunting in the wrong place! BUT IDAHO TRIP TOTALLY WORTH IT GOT A SIVLER RING WITH A BLACK JEM! Going to get it appraised this week and see how much its worth! I AM NOT SELLING IT! I hope everyone got out! I loved this weekend!

Nice black onyx set in sterling ring there Monty! That was a great find! I'd look for a karat marking on the bracelet, could be gold. This is indeed a fun hobby!

Thanks for sharing,

You scored big! ;D ;D Nice Jewelry. Bet your sister will be eyeing that braclet. I personally like finding the old coins but the jewelry is where the $$$$ is at. Plus gets the ladies attention. ;)

Congrats on the gold and silver! Did you find a stamp on the bracelet? Could be a very small stamp on the connector piece. Nice finds and HH, Mike
