Well after yesterdays ring that I thought was 18K and was only stainless I was ready to get out and hunt this morning ! My hunting buddy Ryan (eagleforce) and I have been hunting a large school field for the past 4 years and it has given up gold twice , just not for me . This time I got the gold ! The first good find was a 925 silver pendent with a 4 leaf clover in it . This was the luck I needed

. Then on the other side of the soccer field I got a jumpy signal that had a high tone in it . When I dug it up the first thing I saw was tiny gold ! I couldn't even get a reading on it ! I was just lucky the hole had a clad dime in it and a 14K gold ear ring . I thought finally I found some gold here ! Well that was just the appetizer

. About an hour later near the goal line I got a screaming +68 , +72 at 3 inches . I couldn't believe what I saw at the bottom of the hole , BIG GOLD !!!! It is a 14K gold wedding band that weighs 13.3 grams ! I couldn't stop looking at it

. After all that I got two more junk rings , 1945S wheat and a hammer pendent . Total rings now for the year is at #121

Extremely sweet recoveries after the let down of the stainless steel ! that little clover pendant is adorable .
 

Really great finds! Have to put the shades on to look at that one!!
 

pl8man , I just looked at your new ring find again( the honker ) looks like you got the same gold value aprox. $330. for this one
as the other would have been worth if it was 18K - (if my figures are correct) - amazing how things work out some times !!
 

you just can't beat 330 bucks worth of free gold. congrats!
 

WOW!!! Awesome finds!
Love the gold! Congrats Glen

that's a big ring! not familiar with your machine, but did that sound like a pull tab?

Just like a zinc penny or small silver .

You are killing the rings! You are on some great ground! I usually pass up the zincolns since there are so many, maybe I need to rethink my strategy????:icon_scratch:
 

Very nice . It seems folks have large fingers up there :) What can you share about the history/age of the field your working?

The school is from the 1950's and still gives up wheats and a silver coin sometimes . The field is heavily used year round by kids and adult soccer and baseball .
