Coinshooting gone awry - part 3

[Captain Caveman]

Sunday I went out to a local park that I've been to multiple times. I've found a 1925 Mercury, a handful of Wheats and a Sales Tax Token there in the past so I really feel like there's some good coins in the ground. Well, I had found some Wheats and even hit a spill of 4 Wheats, but that was it. Then, I get a really good 29 on my F75. I decide to dig it because nickels hit at 30 and sometimes they will go up or down one. It sounded like it was real shallow, but I couldn't find it. I got a little frustrated and dug really deep with my Predator. When I pulled the shovel swing up and out of the ground, a big gold ring came flying out! My first real ring! My first GOLD!!!

A little while later, I'm showing my hunting partner where I found it, and I get another solid 29. Of course I dig this one! Barely 2 inches down is my 2nd GOLD RING OF THE DAY!!! OMG!!!

The first ring turned out to be 6g 10k with what appears to be real Onyx and 6 real little diamonds. The smaller ring turned out to be 2g 14k. What a crazy weekend! I went coinshooting Saturday and end up with my first CW bullet, a 2 Ringer. Then Sunday I go coinshooting and end up with first 2 Rings / Gold! Coinshooting - I'm doing it wrong. .

This failed coin shooting is turning up some really nice finds.

You need to go specifically looking for gold rings and relics, and hopefully some coins will show up!

Your finds have been very nice. Congrats and best of luck to you!

That's what I love about this hobby. You never really know what you are going to pull out of the ground. Congrats on the beautiful rings.

Congratulations those are awesome finds!

Congrats on those gold rings. I have yet to find my 1st solid gold anything. But like you I am a coin shooter, and like pulling old coins, but I certainly wouldn't mind to see a gold ring in the hole.

 

[basque-man]

Very cool. Next time tell your self your going to only look for rings!

 

[Captain Caveman]

Thanks for all the kind comments. It's Tuesday and I'm still excited about finding those rings!

My hunting buddy uses an AT Pro. He swung over them before we parted ways for the day and said they both rang up at 52 for him, which is nickel range. So, they both rang up as nickels for both of us. Hope that helps.
