The Explorer gets gold today...

[park pirate]

Got out early today before the humidity set in Ed and I were searching an area next to the tennis courts the grass was high after digging fore Jefferson nickels the next nickel signal was deep I'm thinking a V nickel or a buff, nope much better GOLD the ring has no hallmark so I took it to my jeweler she did an acid test and tested 10k this a very nice ring looks to be a star sapphire she's bent but my buddy Ed has a ring mandrel so I can straighten this baby out....

I SEE THERE OLE PIRATE YOU FOUND A RING TODAY BEFORE THE HEAT HUMIDITY SENT YOU ON YOUR WAY . AND THE SAPHIRE ALONE HAS ITS OWN SHINE, SO NOW YOU CAN ADD THIS TO THE REST OF YOUR FINDS . DANG THE STONE IS AWESOME .

I'm thinking that while Sapphire does come in a range of colors - when you get one that particular color , It might well be called Star
Ruby - They both are Corundum (Aluminum Oxide - Al 2 O3 chemically speaking) and 9 on Moh's scale of hardness - with Diamond
the only mineral that is harder . That's a real beauty of a ring !

I could see that gold in the dirt clump from 20 feet away. Wife cancelled her appointment tomorrow so I should be able to get out !

Sweet ring. I must live in a poor area, have yet to pull any gold out of the ground.

Sweet ring. I must live in a poor area, have yet to pull any gold out of the ground.[/QUOTE just two weeks ago Ed and I were wondering why we have not found any gold this season, with all the nickel signals we dig, and mind yah we dig a lot of junk that come up in the nickel range like beaver tales, can salw, small pieces of foil balled up, but if you don't dig you won't know always dig them nickel signals.....
