Rings, rings, rings and a big 1st for me!

[The Urban Prospector]

Had to send the Nox into Minelab for the infamous leak issue so decided to fire up the AT Pro and hit a few of my spots over the weekend and found alot of rings. The usual stainless, tungsten carbide, etc. Even found a little gold and some sterling rings 😬. But the big find was what I thought was just a standard stainless band with a black stripe (48 yr old eyes). But upon magnification, I saw the engraving TAP 950Pd 925ag. My first Palladium ring😳. The jeweler Todd Pownell, makes custom hammered type "earthy" jewelry. It has genuine black inverted diamonds around the perimeter. Retail price is in the $3k range. I also didn't realize how rare and valuable Palladium is. Ring weight is 6.9 grams.
Take care guys and happy hunting!

Nice haul. Were those fresh or saltwater finds (or neither)? I loved my AT Pro, but I struggled with it at ocean beaches. Regardless ... Congrats!

Yeah all freshwater. You can actually set the AT Pro up to hunt saltwater but it is not going to be the best experience. The Pro doesn't like highly mineralized environments. Take care!

Nice palladium ring! Wish I had found it.

Awesome finds. I’d keep that AT pro firing. Makes me want to take mine out for a spin.
