Congrats on those 3 finds. :occasion14: That ring is a real winner.:thumbsup:
 

the .56 marking means 14K GOLD
Nice Hermes ring made in Germany retails for $910. Got to love it when a silver item is way more valuable than a lot of gold items. Fort pierce park and shop token. Tiny watch.
 

found quite a few of those fp tokens down near 2nd st.,havnt hunted around there in a while,its all concrete ,maybe a re pave is in order,I like the pocket watch,i have had 3 restored to perfect or almost perfect working order

Makes me wonder if we hunt the same beach? Thanks where did you take your little watch to get it fixed? Do the little watches have any value? Did they date them for you or are they more modern? Mine is kinda crusty on the inside.
 

Nice Ring ,Watch ,token.
What did the Ring "Ring up" on your detector ? Very High -Big Silver or High Medium - Large Gold.?

High pitch like silver would on CTX. I don't remember the number it came in as.
 

Good score on the Hermes ring.

Yep,, .58 is 58% Gold which is 14kt.
Congrats on some really great finds.
 

Congratulations on such nice finds!
 

Congratz! Nice finds!
 

14k gold hits high tone on the CTX? Do pull tabs hit high tone as well??
 

what, for a silver ring, makes it so valuable? Are they rare? Limited production?

Thanks. 585 would stand for 14k not just 58. I really wish it were gold but it's not. The ring is silver and 58 stands for the ring size. If you research how Europe marks the size of the rings you will see what I mean. You can even look on a ring sizer and you will see Europe sizes in weird numbers like that. I've found more than a few rings with 417, 585, 750, or 916 for the amount of gold. I've only found a few rings with a European marking for the size in them. I just put it on the ring sizer and it's exactly size 58 European.

14k gold is almost always a low tone on the CTX. Pull tabs hit low tone on the CTX. Some rare occasion you can get a fat 18k ringing in mid like a penny tone. I've only found three fat white gold rings that came up like silver and this isn't one of them. One was 12 grams of 14k but the ring wasn't marked the other was 36 grams of 585 or 14k and the other was 38 grams of 750 or 18k.
