tried hard for jewelry today, got one junk ring

ok today I hit a park and a school playground dug all signals I want some jewelry, I got lots of nickels, aluminum scrap, a CHEAP non silver ring, and 83 coins for an even $6.00

no good jewelry though.
 
Hey, it still a great effort on your part, keep it up, you will find silver and gold soon!!!! Not bad, finding $6. Great job!!!!
 
That ring is jewelry! Who cares that it's not 18K gold and weighs 10 grams. Ok that would be nice - but a ring is a ring! I hunted for about 1.5 hours tonight and didn't dig one coin! I did dig about 20 pull tabs. I would trade your ring for all my pull tabs. How about it?
 
Yup, a ring is a ring!!!!
Were you swinging the sniper coil???
If not you really have the pinpointing down well.
How is the sniper coil now that you have used it a bit next to the playground metal???
 
no I used the 6x9 today I wanted to cover my ground, since I was digging all signals I saw no purpose in using the sniper. And yes days like this gives me a lot of pinpoint pratice :clapping:

I want to return to a couple old houses I already hunted and try the sniper since I got so many bouncing signals there, I am curious if it is just junk or if it was two items under the coil at once.
 
When you get a hit with the sniper. Isolate the target and make tiny 1 inch quick sweeps over it. This will zero in on that particular target.
 
Yeah a ring is a ring is a ring...

Can you inagine how many junk items you DO go through before you hit a nitro ring. On land, it is in the thousands, I assure you. Thats why I have taken to water hunting as often as possible. In the future, dont be afraid to show your trash and junk finds too. It balances things out for the rest of us!

Nevertheless, you did well. Anytime you snag 50 coins per trip and hit a ring in the bargain - that is good.

But lets address your obsession for a moment, shall we? Ask yourself just HOW BAD you want a ring. Do you want it bad? I mean REALLY bad? Bad enough to do something drastic?

If yes, then change your method. From here out, set up your detector to only respond to the DISC segments between foil and zinc cent.

Before you howl in outrage at what you will be missing, or the gazillions of pulltabs you'll find, stop and think.
The vast majority of gold jewelry falls into this range, right? At $1000/ounce, doesnt gold seem the thing you should focus on, if that is what you favor? In other words, spend less time digging US issued tokens, er, coins, and you will have more time for those targets that are most likely to be gold.
Besides, hit one nice ring, just one, and you can sneer at those coins.

There used to be a guy on this forum, Ralph, who hunted just this way and he was astounding with the rings he found. His detector? You guessed it; an Ace 250.
 
wow that would be a bold move to try that!!! if I am digging all signals I might as well take the coins with me though :clap:

They are all great finds :thumbup:
 
A ring is a ring, even a Rosco ring. Take it easy G4, you'll find gold or silver before long.
 
I'm impressed with the $6. Great job. Compared to the two cheap kids rings I have found, yours is much more impressive.

I never get to stay out long enough to find $6. I'm usually hunting during my lunch break or on my way home. I rarely get to hunt for more than an hour at a time.
