Trying not to get to excited! (And hope its real.....)

[FooserPaul]

I started out this am planning on hitting a few tot-lots in search of sprarklies... gems... gold.... silver...

Started off with the standard... pennies... a dime... a few quarters... then a Dominican 1 peso.... 1992... then at the bottom of the slide... just in the wood chips.... shiny gold... a rock... I hope...

Workmanship looks a little poor to be anything too expensive.... sorry, just saying what I see.

 

[FooserPaul]

Side view...

I hear you Crusader... I not hoping for thousands... Just real gold... Would be my 1st... I need to find magnifying glass to read writing inside...

Thx...

Paul

 

[creeper71]

is there any markings inside the band anywhere? example 14k .. it might be to small to see with the naked eye

If so there should be some obvious spots of wear.

Either way it would be quite obvious if you can see any marks inside the band... That would tell you right away what it is made of..unless it is complete junk then it won't have any marks at all inside the band

It's a sparkly ring, either way, Paul!

Fun!


Ha! Ha! I discovered, two days ago, why digs have been so bad in my favorite detecting spots...

An experienced Minelab Explorer II owner showed up to work the turf as I was on the opposite side of the field.

Nice fellow.
Said he's been hitting most of the places I normally go.
He's sure not letting much get past him!

I've read so much about the Minelabs here on Tnet, but it was the first time I ever touched one, personally.
Seemed to be a very nice machine... and I KNOW they are effective!

Perhaps next time I run into him I'll ask to work with it for a few minutes...

Good luck Paul!

I just say what I see, but often get it wrong. lol Its still Gold, so doesn't this count as a first?

 

[FooserPaul]

Its all about expierence.. and you have a ton more than I do... BUt I know know a little more that I did this am :-)

Thx Crusader... I really am glad your here :-) and the many many others that have the knowledge you do...

14K HGE... does it count as my 1st... *shrug*... All that I know is my 14 year old daughter is drooling over it... begging me... She wants it :-) I'm holding it for at least a pot of coffee.... :-)

Paul

 

[Narthoniel]

That sure is one beautiful ring!

 

[DANGLANGLEY]

Sorry it was HGE, but it's still a great thrill to find a ring like that. A pot of coffee might just be a great trade with your daughter. You could make her wear it on her left hand to keep the boys away, lol...

[rmptr]

Oh That's GREAT, Paul!

You've got a daughter that has taken a fancy to it?

EXCELLENT!

 

[wwwtimmcp]

sweet anyway. what does the hge mean ?

 

[FooserPaul]

Heavy Gold Electroplate

 

[willie d]

1. There is some gold on it, so I would consider it your 1st gold ring.

2. It is in pretty good shape

3. It's a whole lot better looking than a pull tab

Congrats
