Tuesday's Hunt comes up GOLD!

Hi all,
Got off work today and it was just warm enough to hunt, when I got home I decided to grab my new (but used) AT Pro and go to my test location. it has a few ball fields among a few other things. I have read a lot of stuff about the AT Pro and it's ability to find Gold Jewelry, and today it didn't disappoint. Today my settings were Pro Zero, which I love on this machine.


My objective was to dig everything above 40 and this little Jewel rang in at 45 about 4 inches deep... it's my first ever Gold from a land Detector, and it's a nice 10K Child's Ring. I think I'm really liking this AT Pro more & more every time I use it because it's so easy to run, Thanks for looking, DirtDiga...aka; looknforgold

I've got 3 or 4 gold rings with my at pro that have all been steady between 44 and 48, they've all been small kids rings, unfortunate that a lot of lawn mowered can slaw is right there too. Sure I've passed a few over because ill get tired of trash.

Nice score

I guess the bigger stuff should hit in the 50's, so excited about this machine.

Thanks all

Nice find! Congrats. I get my AT Gold today. Can't wait for the thaw. One thing to keep in mind is that some gold may read below 40 especially if it is flat and thin. Good to keep in mind if you try nugget hunting.

Congrats. I started getting the gold when I started digging everything. It's hard sometimes; 99.9% of my AT Pro 40's turns out to be foil, 50's and 60's are 99.9% pull tabs, but you gotta power through it! Nice ring!
