Thanks to ringfinder for giving me some tips in using my ace 250. I was in jewelry mode and got a nickle signal at 4 inches. I dug and came up with this. The inside reads equisite-ce 14k. I weighed it with a postal scale and it weighs over 5 grams. Ill weigh it with a digital scale tomorrow for a more precise weight. It looks like it got hit with a lawn mower at one time knocking 1of the 6 stones out of the ring and slicing up the band a bit... but ill take it. I'm hoping the 5 stones are real diamonds.

Thanks again to all in the forum who provide tips, keep them coming.

Way to go on your first gold. Ringfinder has got the ace 250 figured out. I have taken a lot of his advise and used it to my advantage too !!

WTG again,

Hey Jed!

I think the CE stands for "clarity enhanced". As in clarity enhanced diamonds.

I hope they are! ;)

Congratulations on the GOLD!
