finally, found my first gold with the gt !
as i live in germany in the middle of it, there are no beaches to search , and in general it's difficult to find anything here, no parks like in the us, just fields and forests. the entire area has not been densely populated due to difficult hilly terrain. hence i have real problems finding interesting sites, the places auspicious for habitation continue to be populated till now, so no ghost towns etc. i used to travel many hours away from here to the seemingly more promising places, but i never found any gold. ironically, i found it 5 min by bicycle away from my village
i saw a field with a freshly cut grass, between the road and a small stream. spent 2 h walking through it and apart form one 50 pfenning coin from about 1930 (still cleaning it) which i found within the first 15 minutes there, the field was almost empty, hardly any signals. was about to go home, but decided to check out a part of the field a bit to the side, behind some trees. and then bam ! firs came the gold ring , 14 k , but still, i was overwhelmed with joy ! several feet away i dug the silver ring. this part of the field is quite trashy , maybe was a small dump or something. who knows. doesn't look like there was a building there, very innocent-looking place, nothing special. in the vicinity i also found an earing , some shell casings, a lock. i'm definitely going back there to search it thoroughly !
here are the pics :[attachment 132916 DSC_0003sm.jpg][attachment 132917 DSC_0006sm.jpg][attachment 132918 DSC_0009sm.jpg]
in one day i doubled the number of my rings
in the 3rd pics you can see all of them, it is a modest collection compared to others i saw here, but hey, this one is mine
i like the silver ring with the eagle, it's a german military ring from the first world war, with dates 1914 and 1916 on the sides. it was one of the very first things i ever found with a detector.
thanks for looking, cheers and hh !
