I got out detecting last weekend and haven't posted or made any good finds in awhile, but went on a club hunt and my 1st target rang up like a nickel on my ctx, but wasn't a good steady Nickel tone like I usually hear but I decided to dig and am sure glad I did, was only 4 inches down but when I turned the plug over and saw a glint of Shiney gold it sure put a smile on my face! It's only my 2nd gold ring, but it's my 1st 14k gold.

It's a small ladies ring, my postal scale isn't sensitive enough to register its weight, so I'll need a better weigh scale. Any recommendations appreciated! Thanks for looking.

Great find. Always amazes me how gold also comes out shinny from the ground (or sand).
