I hit an old park that I frequently hit. It was hot and I was digging mostly trash. Only One nickel.
I was ready to call it when I decided to hit an area that looked like a sitting spot near a tree. I got a repeatable 47 on the AT Pro. The tone was so crisp, it possessed me to dig it. 3 inches down and BOOM.
10K THL (Samual Aaron Inc. design) yellow gold ring with 3 Blue Sapphires, accented with 2 small diamonds between the sapphires.
Looks to be a vintage design.
Made my year right there.

Most excellent gold ring, congratulations. There is something about that signal on the ATPro when it is over a gold ring... Sub 8-)

The round sound! Congratulations! I don't have any gold this year but I have dug a few that hit the same# on the at pro. Last year my only gold is a 14K ladies band. It hit just like a nickel.

This is my first this year. Last Mid December I hit on a 10K white gold ring with pink gemstone and yeah, that sound gets me digging it rather than pass it up. Repeatable, sharp, and distinct . That one hit 47 also if I remember correctly.

I often get that urge to hunt for "just a little bit more", but I've yet to have such success. Congrats on a great find
