Hello from San Francisco, CA. I'm only 19, but have been finding treasures since I was about 5. It started out with finding obsidian flakes in the Sierras, then escalated to arrowheads :) My late grandfather was mildly obsessed with Native American culture and collected baskets and arrowheads...
All of these items were recovered in the surf with my Sand Shark during three or four trips during the month of September. The big ring is marked 10K, the diamonds I do not know about. I guess I need a tester. The smallest ring has a marking that looks like MEX3K. Is that really meaning 3K gold...

I just wanted to provide an update on my case for those of you who haven’t heard, some good news, the California court of appeals has agreed to accept direct review of my criminal conviction for suction dredging without a permit, which squarely...
Found this nice 9k cameo ring this evening, assayed in Birmingham but cant seem to find a date letter identical to the one on the ring. It is a small 'b' in a square with cut corners. I have included a picture of a drawing I did of the date letter as my camera wont focus in on the hallmark...
Today while detecting an old field in MA I found a nice gold ring. I could use some help dating it or identifying its origin. The ring is smaller and probably a womans. On the inside there is a marking that appears to be the number 18 within a shield. I assume the 18 is the carat but would like...
I purchased this 14k gold buckle and belt at my local thrift shop. It's stamped and verified by local gold place. I paid 50-cents. Sweet deal. :icon_thumleft:

I just got my first metal detector and I went out to try it and I found this ring on my secong hunt!
It was just in the surface and it had another smaller ring inside (Haven't been able to identify the metal of the other ring yet). One of the stamps says 14K, so...
I found this pocket watch today while detecting.
Is it gold? Plated? or something else.
Please let me know what you thing.
I believe the case is Kenosha as it has a Indian on inside of dust cover.

the gold bearing creek I go to used to be a swimming hole back in the 70's until the dam that made it got tore down in 2000. Is it best to prospect before or after the dam
Looking for some nice spots for sampling or even find some gold along or near Clear Creek near Redding.
I know that there used to be a dam there that got tore down in 2000

I'm looking for a magazine article from the early 70's about two prospectors that found a cavern with a river full of gold in it. It was in either CA or NV. They dynamited the entrance closed and one prospector was killed. The other filed an assay and claim in Reno. If anyone knows of this...
...on Wesabulga Creek. With the frequent rains I was tired of the constant struggle in the swift current, so I decided to move my dredge to an open pit which had been excavated three summers earlier. The gold shown here is from about 7 hours of dredging...not to bad for us boys here in Alabama.
I love spending time out on the river. Whether it be fishing, swimming or gold prospecting... a day on the water is always a good one! To make my day even better my pops, 9 year old son, 8 year old daughter, and 2cmorau went out to his claim on the Yuba.
I set the Bazooka up for the kids to...
