    Two rings today , one plated the other 18K GOLD!

    Got out and hunted a school this morning that I have hunted over the years . Not much left to dig but it only took one target to save the day! Had a +14 at 4 inches and out popped a 18K gold ring Has a blue stone and a tiny diamond chip . The other ring looked good in the plug but was plated junk. Total clad for two hours was $4.48 .
