Men’s 14k white gold. Don’t know the brand. First gold feels like I’m high 😂.

I haven't been able to test any gold objects on my simplex+, but I'm wondering if gold can ever make an iron grunt or if it's fairly reliable that an iron tone will always be iron. Just paranoid about skipping so many 04 VDI iron tones. Does the simplex+ just make an iron tone for any target...

Hello! Been AGES since I've posted. Scored 25 cent silver spoon at a thrift store. Possibly 2 silver ones. Can anyone help me identify the small Dutch one? Is it silver or not? Has markings but not sure. I know the other is (even though it looks goldish for some reason) because it says Sterling...

I have been researching a myth told by my grandparents. I believe I'm very close to discovering a treasure in Newton. The information most people have provided about this treasure is not actually accurate due to the changes from the 1800s to today. With the flood that would have swept away or...
