A little Gold with sapphires to start the day

juju · Jul 24, 2010

Howdy all,
I forced myself outta bed early this morning with the intention of doing yard work. Well since the yard isn't going anywhere I talked myself into hunting instead. I grabbed Pulltab Otis and we headed back to the field from yesterday. There are still plenty of targets to be found and we had the whole place all to ourselves. In the back of my mind I had to keep reminding myself that I had clients booked today so time was short. But man there is still so much to dig. Anyway. I pulled a decent amount of clad in my short 1.5 hour hunt. And scored a real nice 10k ring with Sapphires and real small diamond chips. At first I thought I had popped another flashy junk ring, but corrected that thought as soon as I dusted it off a bit. I know there has to be more in this new field, and we have hardly scratched the surface. I plan on hitting it again as soon as my schedule allows. Thanks for looking and luck in the hunt.

This one actually hit a bit high for the normal gold VDI. I remember it was hitting at about 29 - 30 but very stable. Most of the time this VDI would be a nickle or trash. Hope this helps.

The ring is beautiful..

When I see a ring that pretty I know there's a good story behind it. Some guy bought that for his girlfriend long time ago. I was giving a young couple a ride back during the late 1980s. They were having a hellacious fight. She threw her diamond/gold wedding ring out the window as we passed over a dry river bed atop a bridge. She went back later,never found the ring. That's actually common. Woman gets mad at hubby,says "Aw to hell with you ya bastid" and throws the ring away. All the better for us metal detector people.
