14K white Gold ring

[kaolinwasher]

Was going to go to McCullough park this morning but got behind a school bus ,it was stopping every 10 ft and picking up more kids, so I made a U turn and went in the opposite direction. hit a Tot lot and found 35 cents and moved on to another location, and amidst so much trash up comes what i thought was a junk ring , but later i held it and it was heavy, unlike the junk rings, but i could not read it so when i got home sure it reads 14K and it weighs 6 grams white Gold its was reading in coin fast on my ORX 53.54 . and in coin deep 56-57- right where a lot of heavy foils and slaws read, its been well over 15 years since my last Gold ring find

Just the Gold in it is worth 220.00$ as Gold is at 1963.00 $ per ounce

Nice find Gunnar!! Wading through all that junk paid off for you!! Beautiful gold ring it is!! You have the patients of a saint my friend.

Great find for sure. Maybe should stop that bus you were behind and buy the driver a cup of coffee. If he/she hadn't been doing their job, you wouldn't have made a u turn and would have ended up at McCullough Park. Nice Find! H H jim tn

Exactly what I was going to tell Gunnar!

Nothing like being surprised when you get home and find out you struck gold! Can't tell you how many gold rings I've found in my "Junk", often revealing themselves after more cleaning or an acid test. Congrats on a nice looking ring.

thanks fellow diggers, Today i was looking for Gold with the Tarsacci- i worked on some settings for it. and came up with a setting for finding Gold rings wich ignors small foils and yet hits hard on small gold rings, as deep as 8 inches deep , and gets normal size Gold at 8 and 9 inches deep . when i was working out the settings i found the pull tabs where coming in 2 inches deeper than the Gold Rings so i found the sweat spot that actually dropped the depth of the pull tabs and increased the depth of the gold rings so that they now are both comming in at the same depth, this is the setting on the Tarsacci i used for todays hunt , of course i found no Gold but just tabs and some larger can slaw but the small foils Gone , and in a school basseball field that is a big deal , now the tarsacci will not just be silent on the small foils , it will see right thrue then and hit a gold ring and i mean way below the foil Tarsacci Gold ring setting 5 gain, threshold -1 to -3 black sand on , salt balance 47, and using 18khz ,

Nice work.
Some machines are a real pain getting that level of tune.
Awesome when you get it just right.
