Went to a favorite park 3 days ago for a short hunt because it is huge and close to me to look for more gold jewelry.
Dedicated in 1964, always looked for silver coins but no matter what I did or where I hunted in this 1600 acre park, never could find one.
Found a good amount of gold and silver jewelry though, and clad galore so I consider this my jewelry park.
Decided to put the sniper coil on the F70, go low and slow...really slow, and stay under trees out of the sun and just dig good number targets and trash targets that were solid, not super jumpy.
Looking for gold rings mostly, as always.
I went slow as possible in a well hunted, (by me) area and just dug those solid and good targets.
Found clad I had missed in the past, a small silver ring, a 1957 nickel then 3 50's wheaties which was unusual, so then I started looking and hoping for more wheaties but found my first silver coin from this park instead...a target that I have been looking for since I started hunting this park in 2012.
So yesterday I went back to the same area to continue to look for more silver coins and found no wheaties, no silver coins, just another fricken 10k white gold and diamond ring.
Some days you just can't catch a break!
I am gonna have to have a little talk with my F70 soon.
One of us is falling down in the goal setting department...or at least the goal setting vs. actual results department.
Don't know where we went so off track but one of us needs to tighten up, get it together and make an effort to get on the same page.
Just kidding of course...thrilled to have found my third gold target for this year, especially since I am not actively looking for that elusive metal like in seasons past.
7.5 grams of white 10k gold, missing a diamond so it goes in the ARA pile for melt.
A solid 34-34-34 on the F70, similar to a weird pull tab I had to dig all day that came in between 31 and 34 also, but most of those jumped between 2 numbers or so which I consider stable on the over sensitive F series detectors.
This thing never wavered, and well within my criteria to dig all solid signals no matter where they come in.
Once again totally surprised by gold...love those kind of surprises!
Glad I have that rule, glad I followed it and dug this signal because of it.
