    Heck, I haven't even found a gold jewelry piece yet... other than a wedding ring that a friend lost in their yard the night before. I know that doesn't count!!

    Cybersage got one in a ring I believe. I'm still hoping for one, but gold doesn't seem to come out of the ground very often with the ET.

    Hey Beef,

    You E-Trac swing'in fool. How are you? I am truly sorry all you get to dig with that E-Trac is that nasty old Silver. lol I wish I could be so burdened with your affliction. lol

    It was a 1945 Dos Pesos 24K Gold Bullion. Very commonly used in Jewelry. They actually struck the same coin again years later do to popularity. Definately a fun find. Just a huge ring. I danced my but off that day.

    This is largely due to the fact we are looking for those deep silver signals If I feel like digging alot of junk,the gold will be found. My Prob is there arent to many gold rings in the woods at old cellar holes lol That sure is a nice chunky ring cyber. Grats!!
