The weather was perfect for hunting today and the ground moisture was about perfect a rare combination ! Had a very enjoyable hunt with good nickel count 18 and more quarters than usual 11. On heading out I did get a huge CZ ring and when first light hit that stone it was a bit of a heart stopper for a few seconds but I realized it was "2 big 2 b Tru!"

cool find anyway!
 

That is like a months worth of nickels and quarters for me and that would be if i were to hunt every day of that month...heh. I really think i would have a bit of a faint spell if i saw that stone in a hole, before i knew it was cz that is. Nice digs.
 

gotta love the heart stoppers, they do momentarily get your hopes way up but then they are still fun to dig and it is a ring! I've got one of those big engagement rings that made me gasp for a second, still they are cool finds
 

I thought I was seeing still shots from a rap video! Wow that's an impressive amount of coins!!!
 

lol gotta love those nice looking fakes!
 

Might need to reset the pacemaker after that one! :)

Nice!
 

I know that feeling. Instant euphoria to total letdown in about 4 seconds. I had one myself today when the Pawn shop dude verified my CZ stone. They sure do look real don't they??

Oh well, still a nice hunt.
Even though it's CZ, is the setting gold??

That's what I was wondering?

Hi jewelerguy , thanks =)

Hi rodarian, when the moisture is just right, not too wet or dry, it does speed up the retrieval. I dug all those targets with my screwdriver except for one or two in no grass areas. Pinpoint as best possible then pry open ground with screwdriver then put pro-pointer in hole, those are a real help also, if no signal recheck with detector to see if your on target if so then dig deeper a bit and recheck with pro-pointer. Thanks =)

Hi Garrett , I get that on just pull-tabs sometimes, dang things look yellow when first pulled from the ground =D Thanks , its just heavy gold plate on copper but the rock looks pretty at least =)

I hear you on those gold looking pull tabs. I get that all the time myself
For one brief moment, you think you have something.
 

Nice finds! You still scored gold (I count plated) it does have gold "on it"!
I've had a few of those days myself, thank you very much....Avon!
But the really cool thing about this hobby, it may well be the gigantic real deal next time!!!!
