I went to the lake today and used the Deus and found my first gold chain and pendant. They are marked 14 K and weigh 15.2 grams. Very exciting, I thought I was chasing a nickel (sometimes it takes a few tries with the scoop) the machine was telling me it was deep (I have found war nickels and buffalo's deep) Wish I had a picture of my face when I looked in that scoop and seen that GOLD, lol.
I also found a junk ring with a fake diamond in it and a what looks to be a silver earring that I think I found its mate last year? I have to see if it is silver yet?
Enjoy the pix
I love water hunting

Brad

I'm going to my friendly jeweler and check that stone, keep your fingers crossed

Love the chain.

I have been at that spot at least fifty times, this time with a XP Deus!

Man, you think that diamond ring got me pumped, now I'm really hooked on that water. I'm going up to that spot I told you about with a greenie and my boat tomorrow. I'll let you know how I make out.
