Dime, quarter, nickle spill I thought - 3 targets in a small area -

It wasn't a nickle - tiny but a first!

Of course this has totally increased the pulltab count - :laughing7:

Yes- once you find gold you start digging waaaay more trash on purpose.

Worked for me- found 2 gold rings and a gold pendant within a year. And I hunt parks, not beaches.

Every time I dig a 60-65, I think GOLD. That is what gets me through the hundreds of pull tabs for my pull tab to gold ratio lol
Nice fine

Congrats on your first gold find. Now that you have cleared the high hurdle, maybe they will get under your coil a lot more often. SD

Nice fine

I have a nice 14k white gold ring that came in a solid 45/46. I have several small gold rings that came in around 52. 60-65 doesn't cover nearly all the gold on the at pro. I have a big 10k gold ring that hit 69/70. I have a 24k gold ring that hit 88. It was deeeeeeep.

HH ALL!

Congrats... on all those pulltabs! :)

Seriously, glad you finally hit it. Wouldn't it be funny if you pulled another, even bigger gold ring in the next dozen pulltab signals?

I HERBY LAY UPON YOU THE CURSE OF FINDING MORE GOLD!

Sweet little gold ring! But then again, all gold is sweet and it always seems to come when you least expect it.
