This is my first post so bear with me... I have used a DFX for years but as I have grown older it seems to give me a neck and back ache after swinging it all day. So yesterday I went out and bought a new Fisher F11 and took it out for the first time today. Very light weight with no real learning curve. Here is a picture of the first days find. I still rely on me DFX but I am extremely impressed with this little Fisher! The ring says 24K Sterling. Coins and ring.jpg Ring 2 14 16.jpg

Very impressive hunt with that new machine. So what did you do with the ring that was stamped 24k -Sterling?

Nice finds,
Sterling usually indicates, 92.5% silver
24K usually indicates pure gold
Something isn't right with that stamp

"GREAT FINDS" I know the feeling about heavy machines & getting old.

Very nice hunt and finds! As for the DFX weight, I use a harness system and the machine is virtually weightless.
