I was trying out my new 5 3/4" coil on the vaquero in a trashy spot of a local park today. After pulling 2 junk rings and a bunch of can slaw, I got this. I intend to have it repaired!

That's a beauty, congrats!

Thanks for sharing :occasion14:

The way the color is, in that photo, it looks like a ruby. I don't know how to tell the absolute difference, though. What makes you think its a garnet for sure?

You are right, the jeweler said it is a ruby. Even better :)
