Got out this morning for a few hours before some chores I needed to do and went to 2 parks. The 1st one within 20 minutes of just 2 dug clad coins-- I got a penny signal and dug this ring from the woodchips.
It got my adrenaline going for awhile. :grin: I put it in my pocket so I could look at it closer when I got back home.

It turned out to be a 14K GE ( gold electroplate) ring.

I also dug the souvinier penny from the grass area. Mel didn't have to go to Galveston to get something from there...... ;) I dug the penny in a Houston park----55 miles from the beach.... :tongue: :tongue:

Nice little ring Robbie thumbsup01 thumbsup01 That would have made my heart skip a beat or two :loveit: :grin: :grin:
 
Nice recovery on the ring Robbie,that penny VDI on the ring tells me it has a copper base,just a thought...came out of the chips with stone intact,thats sweet...
 
Too bad it wasn't the real thing, but still exciting! That happened with a gold bracelet I found, it looked so solid and heavy. I cried when I realized it wasn't :crying02:
 
Digging that ring up, I would have thought it was real. :shocked04: Great looking one anyways. It will look nice in the display!!
 
Howdy Robbie!
Considering my day yesterday, we should have done some hunting together.
I had a pretty darn good one yesterday. But then again, I am hobbled up to where tot lots is about all I can manage right now.

Still, that's a darn nice little ring.

Plus, I enjoyed seeing your silver ring collection too.

Pipster said thanks for the dime. And how fitting, considering you're the Dimeman!
A big thank you from me goes along with that. Nice meeting you. Just wish we'd
gone hunting.

Blessings,

If I knew you would be stopping at that park next to the demo site, on your slow way back north, I would have met you there. I dug a thick copper chain bracelet from that totlot about 1 1/2 years ago.

It was great to meet you and hear some of your detecting stories,( they are better in person than they are reading them on the forum :grin: :grin: ) and I'm glad you got some nice finds while you were in the vicinity. :yes:
If you ever get down this way again it would be great to see how the gold master does it. :yes:
 
Nice ring!

Mine didn't have a stone in it to make it that much worse though . :mad:
