Another lunch break hunt scores a double eagle...

[TheGeorgiaCanuck]

But not a double eagle coin.




I got a ring....




Not just a ring.....




But a gold ring......




But not just a gold ring.....




A 14k gold ring....




But not just a 14k gold ring....




A 14k gold ring with a platinum inlay....




And 8.50grams total weight to boot. If it was just gold the 100% melt value is $255.58, but I don't know how much the platinum weighs alone.



And here it is....did not have camera with me, had to use phone. Fuzzy pics of ring with dirt intact.

The ring cleaned up follows.

14k mark and PL mark inside. VDI on the AT-Pro with 8x11 coil was 53-54 with a 61 popping up too, probably the platinum.

Ok John Edmonton your turn to beat this!

Very nice!! The Platinum inlay may have triggered the 61, but I'm not sure. My solid Platinum ring hits at a solid 52. Air test it and see if you can duplicate the 61.

Might have just been the ground mineralization, ground there GB'd at 91.

Dunno lets see what the ring gods throw at me next, I'm hoping platinum or 22-24k gold and at least 30+ grams. But I shouldn't get hubris again.

 

[William-NM]

Well, whatever it is, you'll have a spring in your step for a good while!

 

[GoGoGopher]

Be careful what you ask for there TGC...John might just pull a full platinum from his hat...lol...How about Rhodium???
