well went back to the field I have been hunting for months that gave up the silver ring the other day. after about an hour of swinging I get a nice 68 on my at pro. dug the plug and at the bottom of the plug was a gold ring. I just yelled out "BOOM".. 18kt with what I hope are real diamonds. I really thought this field was done and now gold ring.. this hobby is crazy.. i'll be back at it again,for sure..

That seems like a surprisingly high number to me ( though i'm not familiar with the AT Pro) I think of many detectors hitting
that at a low of 18 and maybe a high of 30 - Nice find !

Been quite some time since I had the pleasure of gold in my hole.

Got to like the surprises, and a 18 K is a great one.

nice chunky one with stones too...hope they're real..seems to me that an 18kt gold ring should have real stones, of course I never found a big chunky 18kt ring with stones....so, keeping fingers crossed for you.

With such a heavy setting around the stones , that is indicative of an older piece of jewelry , great find

cubic zirconia would have excessive rainbowish colors shooting out compared to diamonds, this does not look like that. Super find :)

My first ring was a 68 on the at pro. 14k solid band at 8 grams.

Nice find OP

Congratulations! That's a great find, don't keep us in suspense, let us know if those stones are real diamonds or not, either way, that's a great find, thanks for taking the time to share. HH
