My ring slump ended this morning with a THUMP !!!! I got out and hunted one of my favorite parks this morning hoping for one more treasure . I decided to hunt the grass along the side walk . Well after an hour and a hand full of clad I got a +20 at 3 inches . My eyes about popped when I looked in the hole :happy2: . It was a big white gold ring !!! I wasn't sure what Kt till I got home , no stamp inside. It passed 18K :hello2: !!! I tried 22K test but it failed . It weighs 10.6 grams ! My slump was over :icon_thumright: . The other ring I found was right on the surface and is a home made copper ring , #118 .

I just learned something from another forum , stainless rings test like 18K gold :BangHead: . I tested my other stainless ones I have found and they all test like 18k but not 22k :angry4:: , Oh well next time :thumbsup:

Wow, that sucks... Good to know though. :icon_scratch:Still a nice ring... Your right you'll get umm next time !! :thumbsup:

Keep @ it and HH !! :hello2:
 
Also check into PALADIUM, I think paladium comes in at 18K also.
