Hello All! Got out for about 3 hours this evening at a local middle school intent on finding jewelry. LOTS of clad, pull tabs etc. Got a good nickel signal and dug this baby out. It's marked 585 (14K) and has 2 small diamonds & what I believe is an emerald. Any day finding GOLD is a GOOD day! HH! :skullflag:

Thats a great score Josh. A real beauty. I told you it takes time and a lot of junk digging to get the gold.

Nice ring. I set time for just jewelry and have yet to get any. I keep pushing because it gets OLD digging tabs and junk. So hats off to you all who can stick with it.

Very nice ring!! Nothing like pulling a gold ring out of the ground, it always looks as good as the day it was lost!!

Very nice find. I also searched a football field yesterday. Besides the basic clad and junk all I come up with was a cheap ring with absolutely no value. I'll trade ya.
