Thanks very much for your research, That list will come in quite handy as I am learning my new AT-Pro. I see the ring he found was 18ct and Palladium. That could be why the high reading. From what I have read Palladium is used in place of Nickle and Silver in some Jewelry to turn it white. It also doesn't tarnish.

Usually Palladium rings are 95% as I read the article. Thus it could have a different reading. My whole reason for asking this question is I have Whites detectors and this AT-Pro. I remember reading a metal detecting article many years ago when Palladium first became popular in class rings to replace the expensive gold ones. It is now half the price of Gold but used to be much cheaper. The article said something to the effect that it read in the upper trash area of his detector. I wasn't real interested in Palladium at the time so I didn't pay a lot of attention to the article. Now I'm sure there are a lot of lost ones out there and I'm interested. I may be way off on my recollections thus my question.

There is no answer to the question. Rings are too varied to give an answer. Coin numbers are more reliable. That's why the ring guys dig all mid range signals.

Hi Gleaner,
Yes you are right. I wasn't looking for an exact number so much as an area on the scale. If they read in the same area as small Gold rings, Large Gold rings or both depending on size or as Silver rings or as trash (iron or small pieces of foil). I should have been more specific in my reason for asking. Thanks.......G
