I hunted the school that gave up the 14K 35 diamond ring I found years ago , see my Banner finds , hoping it would give up another . Boy did it :hello2::hello2::hello2: !!!! Only 10 minutes in I had a +10 at 3 inches , 22k gold ear ring with 3 diamonds ! The next great find was the biggest ! +22 at a half inch , Big 22K gold neck less with pendant :headbang: . Then not more than 20 feet away I had a +16 at 2 inches , 22K gold pendent ! When I got home and cleaned them up gave them all an acid test and weighed them I was shocked ! I had found over $900.00 in GOLD !!!!! Total weight was 23.07 grams !!! In 20 years this is my best gold hunt ever !!! Total clad was $9.59 for only 2 hours hunting .

Very VERY cool! That's alot of gold! Lost by a Hindu, that pendant has the symbol of the Hindu faith on it. It's called the "Aum" symbol.
People from India usually own very high purity gold like that.:treasurechest::occasion14:

Actually... its "OM"... and its based on the sound... It is a "mantra"...
Not only in Hinduism...
But Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism

Banner worthy man. I miss San Jose, but 37 years and I had enough.ill always consider it home no matter how much it changes though, and boy has it! Still some of the best school hunting around though. Congrats on the awesome finds! It's pretty rare for anybody to find that much weight!

I have lived here in San Jose for almost 48 years and would never leave ! I have seen corn fields I played in as a kid become a high ways and the population go from 250,000 to over a million people and I still love this place !:thumbsup:

as a fellow MXT user, were your readings in jewelry or prospecting mode?
