Thin gold,like a chain ,will show up low,a thick ring would be higher,the spectrum for any metal will vary outside of that shown on the guide,depending on the type of target;Dig them all,you never know what awaits below ground.

Gold hits all over the scale on my Safari. Chains seem to be harder to identify I think because of the size of the links and clasps. If they have a charm or pendant on them they come in a lot better. White Gold really has some strange ID's. Platinum comes in around 4 or 6 on my machine in this ground in east TN. So like the other people said just dig it all to be safe. Hope this helps. HH
