Have not been out in a while, but was able to get out this weekend spent 4 hours saturday and 5 hours sunday. Saturday my wife found a 10k 3.4g gold with 12 tiny diamonds. I found a .925 silver Ornate ring 5.8g very detailed then an hour later I found a .925 silver charm bracelet 15.8g (COOL).
Sunday was a little slower within the 3rd scoop I found a 10k 13 tiny diamond 4.3g ring it sounded like gold, looks like white gold stamped 10k. The wife found some RayBan sunglasses.

I spent a couple of hours cleaning the silver and gold rings they were encrusted pretty heavily. I still have to do the braclet. We also found some junk jewelry and about 200 coins $10-12 worth. They are being tumbled now. 3 pairs of sunglasses amongst other stuff.

I just do electryolsis until encrusted stuff is off, rub with baking soda to polish up then buff clean.

On coins, I add a handful of river rocks with warm salt water that is it.

I know, it is starting to give up some of the old stuff the past month. Hopefully it will keep coming.
