Today's heartbreaker....

[fwcrawford]

I went for a short hunt this afternoon and tried around a couple of local schools.
While at the second one, I got a 28 on my 800 and thought it may be a small silver ring.
When I knelt down to find the signal, it was just lying under the grass out of sight.
It looked good, but I was a little leary due to the high TID.
This ring is about a size 12.5!
Around the stone is "PROFESSIONAL TRUCK DRIVER".
After I got home, I looked it up and it is stainless steel.
Oh well, it was exciting for a while!! LOL
Thanks for looking!!

What a heartbreaker! Still a super find though. It can’t be gold every time you find a ring Felix

 

[Ted S]

Still a cool find Felix!

 

[Mark kus]

Still a Nice find it’s plated gold ? Hard to see I found one this fall looked gold and said just high school it was plated but a few minutes later I found a gold band crazy.

I had a similar experience a few months ago when I found this. Even has a golden hue to it but appears to be something called listrium or some such thing. High school ring and I did find the person's number listed on the inside but he never responded to a message. I'm still taking it to the exchange for confirmation that it's not worth anything

Heart stopper for sure!

That is a nice one!!!
Do you recall what the TID was?

It was high , almost zinc penny high which made me suspicious but I found another with the Deus 1 that ran high and it was genuine. Worst thing was , I stopped hunting with time to spare I was so pumped up

The ring might not be the real deal but the rush was. Thats a very cool find, congrats. Maybe the next one will be gold. Good luck. Mark

Rings are rings. Always a good day finding a ring.

 

[utmike]

That's a real high TID for stainless. Either way, it's a cool find.

I agree… I am thinking it gave a high reading due to its size and being a round object.

 

[Ronstar]

One ring I found awhile back I thought was maybe 50c or near. Big ol SS toe ring……

 

[casull454]

Prettier than the stainless ring I found in the water this past summer. Just a big plain band. Had me excited thinking it might be platinum or palladium.
