Wow I just can't believe my luck this past 2 weeks. Falling back in love with my Tesoro Lobo ST. Decided to do an early am hunt here in AZ since its been averaging 108 degrees in the day. Got to the park at 5 am set up my standard settings Max sensitivity, 12 o'clock threshold in all metal/ toggled to 2.5 on discrimination.

Walked about 20ft into the park and got my first target, 2 inches down a thin 14k gold band, filled my little hole and searched the perimeter, another signal approx 10 " from first one, dug and hit something it looked shiny like a new pulltab so I assumed it was, but to my surprise it was a 10k white gold ring (possibly diamond). I couldn't read the marking till I got home and cleaned it,but could tell it was a good one.

Anyhow made a brief video since I was so excited, too bad I didn't film the digs lol.

The rest of the day was uneventful lots of trash about $1.20 in change and a few junk jewelry pieces, but the rings made all the pull tab digging worthwhile.

thanks for looking
sorry my phone sucks for video, my first attempt :)

@Todd 1st was about 2-3" 2nd was about 4-6"
 
Wow ! That's really great to say the least.
Hope you continue to find many more gold rings.
Just wondering if you use the stock coil on your Lobo ST.
You are on a roll ! Good hunting to you.
 
lol@mudpuppy
@Gene yes just stock coil I love it, very precise to pinpoint with and decent coverage on sweeps.
 
Thanks for letting me know about what coil you are using.
You really know what you're doing with your Lobo ST !
Looking forward to seeing many more gold rings from you. ! HH Gene
 
deliveryboy.........Thanks for the info.on depth of your rings....I was just curious......WTG ! :).....

Sorry I didn't reply sooner; my 'puter is momentarily inoperative due to virus infection and I'm waiting for my son to install a new hard drive and try to get it running again. He is the Webmaster where he works and knows about these things. In the meantime, all my Emails have been dumping into my wife's laptop. I don't know how this has been happening, but suffice to say I'm doing catch-up on replies.

Stay with it while your luck and detector sav.vy are running high and please keep us informed of future finds !

Thanks Todd as a matter of fact I found another 14k band this morning this time with my Compadre as seen here :) number 7
