Struck Gold with the Ace 250!

litefire56 · May 14, 2008

I was doing a little hunting at a local park. It was really trashy but managed
to get a quarter then a penny. Stopped to light a smoke and noticed the people up at the pavilion were going to their cars, So I decided to head that way and while not even swinging the coil, took a step and heard a nickel signal. I figured it was a tab but thought "what the heck" I could use an extra nickel. Cut a flap and nothing in the dirt..scanned the flap from the bottom and still nothing. Turned the flap over and scanned it again. Bingo! there was my signal again. Started to scrape the little bit of dirt from the roots and out popped the bottom of the ring. Pulled it out and couldn't believe my eyes...7 beautifully cut Rubies set in 14k-I almost walked away from it.

Wow,

Great stories, awesome finds, killer photo! Make sure you tell the lady you paid $20 to get her ring back.

Keep @ it and HH!!

First of all. Great ring. Absolutely beautiful. I must say though, what a creative picture you took of it. The dark background of the tire really makes the ring stand out. The sun :icon_sunny:

shining off of it completes the package. Thanks for sharing it with us. :thumbsup:

I have an appointment for an appraisal next Thurs. The gemologist only works 1 day a week. They charge $55, and I hope its worth at least that much. As for the picture it was taken by my son who is also a new member to this forum. I was too busy digging a $.50 signal that turned out to be 2 quarters stuck together. These Ace 250's are smart!
