This years start has been great for me :hello2:. I found another first at a local school field that is always full of clad ! Total clad for a 3 hour hunt today was $18.52 :thumbsup:! I have hunted this school many times over the years and it has given up many silver items but never any gold . Today I decided to just work inside the soccer field lines and it payed off BIG TIME !! Almost right in the middle of the field I had a sweet +28 at 4 inches . I pulled back the plug and I saw a thing of beauty :thumbsup:! It was deep rich heavy GOLD :hello2:! It is a man's ring ,24K and weighs 7.85 grams . The ring was bent when I found it so I fixed it . Very ply able when 24k :thumbsup: . I can't make out the marks but it tests 24k with flying colors ! I love the look of high Karat gold :thumbsup:. Also found some junk rings taking my ring total to #18 for the year :icon_thumright:

When I first dug it and it was bent I was able to bend very easy just by hand . The few 24k items I have found over the years are always very bendable .

Nice!

I think the kids around here need to ask their parents for more allowance money. :D

I love the look of pure Gold - I found a 24K bracelet under a dive dock in a lake. No markings, the jeweler said it most likely came from the middle east.

Congrats!!!!!! :thumbsup:
