As I have posted earlier, I have been going back over a soccer field that produced 5 silver rings and an 8" 14K gold chain bracelet. This second time over has taken me several days to do a thorough job. I knew with finding the 5 silver rings that there just had to be a gold ring or two, and I was determined to find it. Finally, with about 10' of the field left to search, I hit paydirt. It was a 14K gold opal ring! The main opal is broken, but that's OK, it can be replaced. My total for the soccer field is:
21 Quarters
66 Dimes
33 Nickels
201 Pennies
5 Silver Rings, 1 with 14K rope around it
1 8" 14K Gold Chain Bracelet
1 14K Gold Opal Ring
1 100 Peso Coin
1 Canadian Penny
1 Sac Dollar
1 Roosevelt Commemorative Coin
Numerous trinkets and token
AND A TON OF PULL TABS AND SHREDDED ALUMINIUM
Now I can rest, mission accomplished!
This is the soccer field:

Nice job!

Nothing like a fancy gold ring coming out of the dirt!

Congratulations on joining the opal club! ;)

Very nice gold finds!
 
Absolutely gorgeousssss ring and I especially like the picture of the soccer field above. You don't give the actual location but show us what it looks like. Thank you for sharing.
 
Like the graphical display breaking down the finds imposed over the soccer field. Great haul. What was the target ID (VDI) value displayed for the 14K Gold ring on your Spectrum? Did you use a pre-loaded program?

VID was a solid 17, I accept everything from +1 to +28 and +50 to +94 with a trac offset of +1. It is my modified coin program.
