CZ 6a get gold with nickle reading

The 2 rings are connected and are 14K. Very small chips for diamonds and sorry for the bad pics. Found in a local park today with recently bought cz6a. Had the e-trac in my truck....still fun finding gold and silver
 
Looks pretty sweet!! It's been quite a while since I've found any gold. Congrats!!
 
Nice find. Almost thinking that if separated, each individual ring may ID as foil, 14K foil that is.
 
Nice find. In 15 years of owning a CZ6 I found many, many gold rings in the nickle readings. Keep digging the nickle reading, you'll find several more. Rick IL

Hi, how do you mean the rings are connected?, or why?

Thanks.
they are connected . looks like engagement and then the wedding ring together

So they are actually bonded or melted together then by the metal itself, by a jeweller?, I see now.

Thanks.
 
I've found 8 gold and 1 platinum ring at the beach with other machines, but I never paid attention to what they read because I scoop everything that isn't iron in the sand. I bought a cz-70 from cometguy not long ago and I airtested those rings on that machine. All the womens rings, (except 1 heavy one), read as foil. All the mens rings (and the one heavier ladies ring), read as relic, so when he said a nickle reading could be a gold ring I didn't really believe it. Last week I was detecting a park with the cz and I found my first gold ring from a park, and what did it read as before I dug it? Yup, a nickle. Now I'm standing here before you and cometguy with mud on my face for not believing. It was a 14k yellow gold mens wedding band, thin and plain (it only weighed 3.1 grams, but thats about $90. scrap value, which is a lot better that the ton of pennies I was digging before that). My cz doesn't airtest a dime near as far as some you say yours does. Is there a way to have the factory adjust that (remember this is a digital cz-70, not a cz-3d)?
 
Actually most gold rings in that area will read foil or a nickle-foil bounce. Imagine both together brought them into the nickle range on the other hand my wifes gold mothers ring comes in dead nickle( considering Fishers testing about 5 percent of gold rings came in nickle and 35 percent came in foil chances a foil reading will be a gold ring are much better. Once found a 14 kt. gold ring with a nice diamond for a lady that lost it shoveling snow and it came in dead nickle but heres the kicker it was too big for the womans finger and had a sizer to keep it snug and remove the sizer and it came in foil. Moral of the story keep digging all the foil readings along with the nickle and chances are a gold ring will go in the pouch...
 
sonny, do gave a small digital scale? I would like to know how much the two of them weigh. I know your rings, being womens rings, go on smaller fingers, but your rings were thicker gold than mine, and there were 2 of them. Mine was a mans but it only weighed 3.1 gram. I'm just trying to figure why ours both read as nickle.

Dan, you say Fisher testing put 5% of rings at nickle and 35% at foil, that leaves 60%, which I assume were heavier mens rings. Where did that other 60% read as, and was that on a 3 tone or 4 tone cz?
