  3. Help dating very old ring

    I found this ring the other day and was wondering if someone can help me date it. There was a person on facebook who said it looks like a Medieval vesica seal, and usually is found in Europe. If that is the case, it must have a very interesting story on how it was found in New Jersey.
  4. 🏆 HONORABLE MENTION Lost 20 Years Ago ~ 18k Gold Indian Chief Ring Returned To Owner!

    On May 8th, 2012, I took my week old Minelab E-TRAC to a local park to practice. I had been detecting for over a year with my Teknetics Delta 4000, but while the E-TRAC offered more horsepower, it was also going to take longer to master. After digging plenty of clad and lot's of trash for an...
  5. Byzantine ring?

    I bought this ring at an antique store in Istanbul yesterday and the man told me (in Turkish - which I may have only half understood) that it's from the Byzantine era which to me seems quite unbelieveable. Can anyone tell me (1) if that seems possible looking at this ring and (2) either way, if...

  7. Testing an IMPULSE buy

    I finally got the chance to test out the Fisher Impulse I got off Ebay. Yea, ok, I was being punny. But it was sort of an impulse buy of an Impulse. I saw it going pretty cheap and I wanted a back up for my White's Surfmaster so I sprung for it. I headed down to Galveston, Tx for a meeting and...

  13. Not More Junk!.......What? OMG Its Dirt Ice!

    Not More Junk!.......What? OMG It's Dirt Ice! I sadly lost my Mom to cancer recently and have not been posting here for a while. A few days after the funeral I badly needed some peace of mind that only getting out with my Explorer SE Pro can do. I'd just started to detect an historic house that...

I have had the AT gold for a little over a month and I am 3 silver rings, 1 stainless ring, 1 copper ring (Rose Gold?) and this beauty of a gold ring. plus 6 silver dimes (4 Mercury...
  15. Ring with strange inscription

    Hi guys. I found this ring that I got years ago while moving house and I have no idea what it says. I tried writing out the inscription, which I have included with the photos below. The ring is goldish in colour but I'm assuming it's not actually gold. It is roughly 22mm across. I was thinking...
  16. 22 reasons to be happy today!

    Took a trip to the beach today to try and beat the 100 degree heat. Decided that since it was an afternoon low tide I'd stick to the water. Spent four hours in the surf from knee deep to neck deep. Found a nice golden ticket about an hour and a half after I arrived, in waist deep water...
  17. Cool and slightly creepy - compartment ring with snakes on top

    Ok, been lurking for a while but never posted any finds until now. Always thought this was pretty neat, but with no markings or anything, it's hard to say what it was meant for, although I can guess. It's heavy like silver, and you can see from the bottom where it was attached to the main ring...
  18. GOLD! Finally!

    Took me quite a few trips to the beach this year but I finally hit gold. I've spent 70+ hours on VA Beach searching for it, but today it couldn't elude me. Here's my first gold ring of the year. Hopefully many more to come...But I'm not holding my breath. 14K white & yellow gold and weighs...

  21. A Big Yellow Diamond (I wish!) in Western Australia.

    The Garret AT Pro had found me a tiny silver 1952 threepence (an Australian pre decimal coin) and the usual junk. I was sinking into thick, smelly, black mud and was about to move to another area when I got a good signal (Pro Coin Setting). Kneeling in dirty water up to my neck and digging down...
