Today with the yard work all done I ran away from home with Bandido in hand as fast as my little Toyota could take me.
I had no idea where I would go detecting until I found myself near a familiar old park. Madcard1 called and asked if i was able to
escape and I told to join me with one of his many many detectors....I was glad to see he brought his SE cause the Bandido
doesn't like hanging around wimpy detectors. The park is a old one but due to drunks and jocks we were limited as to
where we could hunt. after about three hours detecting neither one of us finding anything really good. I was digging just about
everything just above the foil range hoping to out do my wife's garden find. ( Yesterday's post.) Mascard1 decided to call it a day
but I just had to give it a little more time.....So off goes Mascard1 in his hot rod leaving me and the Bandido alone.
About 5 minutes later just about the time I thought about leaving I got a strike worth digging. I found a nice littler 925 silver
band about six inches deep. Flipping the plug back into the hold I stood up and swung the coil over it and again another signal...
So I flipped open the plug again and gently probed the bottom of the hole and up pops another silver ring. Ha! It ain't gold but it's a
dang good save!
 
Nice job and finds. 2 rings in the same hole is not very common...at least for me.:thumbup: HH jim tn
 
WTG! - and goes to show a reason to always recheck.
Ya did better than I did today - was getting some clad, and on one hole (plug) I pulled up a quarter. Ran the pinpointer and still got another signal so went to scrape out some more soil and sliced the hand on broken glass. This isn't the first time I done this. The other piece was the diopter ring from a binocular. If it was a ring (or 2) it wouldn't have been as bad.
 
I knew I should not have planted those rings before I left?....damn trumped by a bandido...Well there's always next time....maybe next time I could sneak up on him and trip him! hehehee!!!!!

Well.....you have a couple of Tesoros. I don't know why had to bring the battery guzzler. Next time bring the Tejon and I'll be more then happy to GB it for you. ( Be kinda like baiting my daughters hook. Hee hee )
Steve I was just a yard or two away from the rings when you drove off! I wonder how long you would have stuck around if i found them just before you left?
 
Think I would have spent the night ....Would have been in big trouble!!!!
I did a air check of the tejon...man it goes way out there!!!!!...even on a small gold wedding ring!!!!

Gave it a rinse of Mountain Dew then went back to digging more trying not to pack dirt into the slice. Mountain Dew gets sticky so my hand kind of stayed a mess. I normally carry a small first aid kit in my detector vest. Didn't wear the vest this time - at least I had some Dew:biggrin:
