Evey once in a while you get a "Sign" some sort of event or happening that means that todays hunt will be extra special out of the blue ! For today that sign occurred while trying to find a signal, suddenly there was no signal response in the dig, I noticed there was a clump of dirt on the screwdrivers shaft, weird !! So I tweaked it with my finger and some dirt fell off then wow a ring became visible !! :hello2:

Later on into the hunt for some reason I dug a low conductive signal an 06 on the E-Tracs conductive readout. You know what these most often are the foil that gets removed from plastic milk bottle tops. Only this time it was not one of those times !!! After prying some dirt out of a hole some unexpected colors showed up red and gleaming gold :hello2:

Ring weighed, has 10k stamped inside.

All of todays goods:

Heres todays trash, not as much as some days, but there it is.

Hope you enjoyed seeing my first gold of the year :headbang:

P.S. While I am no expert on stones, this just might be my first ever Ruby ring also , how cool is that ???

WOO HOO!!!!! Nice! That is a beauty!

Congrats on your first gold ring w/ruby of the year! I am doing the happy dance for you!

The rest of your finds looks like it's been in the ground for a while too. Those links look like the bracelets I used to get a a kid.

I too found gold, tiny, tiny, but gold!
I also "lost the target" in one of my dug holes only to find it on my screwdriver...but mine was a pop top not a ring. :icon_scratch: :laughing7:

Hopefully this is a sign of things to come for us this year! :headbang:

Nice for sure.
I only manage to average one gold ring a year, not counting recovery "jobs" so I like to see them come out too.
Buddy of mine once found 2 in ten minutes.
