Soccer Field Turns Up Gold...........

[Ima Swinger]

Not a good pic., but here you go.
I found this 10k gold ring (child) on the soccer field at the local Elem. School.
I also found my first wheatie during this hunt (1941).
Unfortunately, I broke my friggin' probe.
This cut my hunt short because the probe has spoiled me.
So it looks like I'll be researching probes before buying a new one.

Thanks for looking,
Ima Swinger
(and still lovin' it)

I've hear good things about the tinytec. I just ordered one. I ordered it on Sunday afternoon, and that evening I had an email saying it would ship Monday.

Thanks guys. I should also mension that this ring has a copper inlay (flower in middle). That's what Momma Swinger told me it was anyway.

Ima,

I second that.
Congrats on the ring. Gold is great!

[Ima Swinger]

Yeah, I'm leaning towards the Vibra Probe for sure.
There is definitely more positive feedback on this one then on the others (White's, Tinytek, Automax). Mine was an Automax...kinda big and easy to knock the sensitivity off kilter.

nice ring ima wtg agree with bdoo more than likely the inset is rose gold. I do own a probe but dont even keep batteries in it. sorry old school 2 screwdrivers. But I know the tineytec has been around a long time and vibraprobe is liked by all. cant go wrong with either.
keep us posted

Hey Dave, thanks for clearing up the Black Hills Gold for me. I had no idea what that was. I just haven't had time to ask Bdoo about it.

Hey Nick, you may be kidding about the camera, but you are absolutely right. I'd love to have a digital camera capable of taking good close ups, but I don't know anything about them. I'm going to have to do some research.

thanks guys,
Ima
