New detectorist, first ring

[RFrady]

I got my detector Friday for my birthday and managed to try a few places out this weekend. I had limited success with coins and excellent success with trash. I had an hour break for lunch so went to a nearby freshwater beach. The parks folks had put down a new layer of sand, so pickings were slim. I wandered down a nearby trail and found the ring between a nail and a pulltab. I know I will be digging every signal. The image with 3 coins was a pocket dump I found in the woods. It was a solid hit just off the trail and all 3 came from the same hole.

Striking gold on your first trip out......it just don't get any better than that! Congrats and welcome to TN, you will love it here, almost as much as hunting! I've been detecting with my first detector for about 6 months now and still no gold, but, lots of other stuff! I, too, love this hobby!!
