I went to a new site, it was an old school football field that currently is used as a soccer field and neighborhood park. I heard a strange moving tone, clipped from high to low. I dug it, and the gold ring popped out at me! It is 14k. I also found a sterling silver bracelet and ring, and $7 in clad quarters. The gold ring rang up 57 on the VDI. I usually don't dig those strange signals, but you bet I will be from now on!

Why did you have to return it, Dan? Was it a lost ring you were trying to find for someone?

Welcome to the gold club. Some of my best finds have been iffy signals. Digging the iffys you will dig more trash, but also more treasure. Good luck and keep swingin.

Hi, How is Denver? I was stationed at Lowry AFB for three months of Tech school in Apr. of 1978. It amazed me how flat the ground was and then you just ran into a huge wall of mountains! Excellent finds also :hello: Paul:coffee2:

Soooo true! On the weekends, I would rather detect out in the fresh air than anything else! My friends think I am a big nerd. It is incredibly relaxing and exciting at the same time. ARRRGGGH, MATEY!

I LOVE it, Paul! Been here six months now. We didn't get a fall this year, but four snowstorms instead..

Congrats on your first gold R and B. Start digging all of those pulltab or iffy signals to get the gold. You will dig a lot more garbage, but you will find some nice gold every now and then also.
