What a day!I went to an elementary school one town over from me yesterday and found the ring on the right.It is just a cheapo but I went back today and found 2 rings. The little one on the left is silver (.925)and has some precious gems channeled in it; a peridot,amethyst,blue topaz and citrine according to the new owner(wife). The big one in the middle has ,I believe from what I can see a 750 stamped on the inside. It came in at an 8 on the Xterra 70. That has me puzzled though since .750 would mean 18Kt gold but as you can see it looks like silver.I know nothing about jewelry, I leave that to the wife.I guess I better learn about jewelry since the first 2 outings this season have resulted in ring recoveries.The Xterra70 makes MD'ing as easy as taking candy from a baby. I also ended up with about $4 in clad with the oldest quarter only being a 1966.

The ring marked 750 is likely white gold. The 8 on the Xterra would be about right for gold - same range as foil. Congrats. And I agree about the Xterra, its an awesome machine.

One of my best finds was an 14k White Gold ring weighing in at 11 grams. When I first pulled it from the ground, I though for sure it was Silver. Until I saw the 14k inside.

Good finds.
