Got out for a 1 hour hunt today before night work in San Francisco . Hunted a park not more than a mile from my house . This park has never given up gold in the 16 years I have hunted it , today that ended in a big way ! The very last target before walking to my truck I had a +32 at three inches . I thought just more trash , but no not this time

. I saw the edge of a gold ring and it was dark gold ! It turned out to be my first ever 22k gold ring ! It's a signet ring with the letter R and weighs 8.1 grams . It has three hallmarks but the only one I can make out is the 22K mark . I tested it just to make sure and it pasted

I swear! I am gonna start walking backwards from my car when I start! That way, maybe the detecting spirits will think I'm on my way back to the car. LOL

Pretty one!
