It was miserably cold and raining last night but that did not GR.jpg matter. I found my first ever gold ring. 10.3 gram found it with my CTX 3030 about 3 inches deep.

It's not going to win any beauty contests but I am sure happy with it. GR1.jpg Sorry for such bad pics. I only have my cell phone to take pics. I have not done anything to the ring, just rinse the dirt and mud off. 12592734_1212715218757096_8159319474021665690_n.jpg

That's the best kind of gold you can possibly find! Nothing better than pure gold! :tchest::icon_king::icon_pirat:

You would think someone would make something pretty with 24k right? I'm thinking it might be older. Congrats on the awesome find. I'd love to hit a 24k.

Great find. Looks like it might have been hand made. I would also guess it's from India/Asia. They're the only places I've ever seen 24k gold come from.

Thanks is a hunka-hunka burnin' gold! It looks like a fighting ring that would do some damage. Congrats. Sub 8-)
