Detector(s) used
Minelab X-70, Excalibur 800
I went over to the small baseball field near my house today. Yesterday I got a new x-terra 70 and I tried it for the first time today. I started detecting the field and it gave me a signal of 18 to 20. So I figured why not dig it. When I dug it up I thought it was a bottle cap, but then the dirt fell out of the center and it said 10K inside. I yelled over to my dad and told him I got a gold ring and he told me to come over to where he was digging. I showed it to him when I got over there and he said it was a gold wedding band and high-fived me. Then I got the biggest smile on my face. I saw my friend Ryan riding his bike with his dog, Leo, and showed him. He said "wow".

Here are the pictures of the ring and other things I found...

If anyone can identify this hallmark please tell. :icon_scratch:

Practice swapping arms with the detector, that way your spine will untwist itself.
