Went back to the park where I found the Rosie. I decided to hit a wide open area that looks like it is used for soccer or football. I found some clad from the 60's but no silver. Even a 1954 nickel. Then the Etrac hits with a 12-47 12-48. I dig down about 4-5 inches and out it pops. At first I thought I had dug a aluminum screw cap. Then I realize it's a silver ring. I am not sure what the stone is (I think Agate). Clear with black specks.

Says Sterling on the inside with a hallmark. Looks like an older ring to me.

That's a nice ring, and the stone is agate. My first silver ring was big honker similar to yours, even the same agate stone.

I use Bill S. trashy park program. It has a small nickel notch and hits on zinc, clad dimes, copper and silver. Discs out iron, foil, some pulltabs, and most gold.

That trashy park program is a killer. It is all I use except sometimes open it wide up with an iffy signal. Nice ring

I'm going to try and load that one up. Not sure of I can but I'd like to use it around some of these trashy parks we have and maybe an old junked out homesite I've gone to

The ring is beautiful--looks like Montana Moss Agate to me, which correlates with your location. Congrats. -Lisa

Thanks Lisa! Leave it to people living on the other side of the country to identify something that is from my own backyard. :laughing7:
