Went out water detecting again today , and found my third silver in a row. This time out I got an old silver ring, ( I looked for the stone, but no luck). Looks like its been in the water for some time. Now to clean it. Baking soda method?

That's a big one!!! It's too bad the stone is missing but it sounds like your in a good location...keep it rolling and good luck! Gold is just around the corner!!

Thanks guys, I did baking soda and it looks much better.
Here`s how it looks now. Still not as shiny as I`d hope to get.
You're on a silver roll! Keep it up!
