14K GOLD TODAY ! Rings #5 & #6

[pl8man]

Finally got out for a hunt this morning after working the last 7 days . I decided to hunt a school / park that has given up gold and silver over the years . I was hunting close to the black top when I got a +68 , +72 . When I dug down I saw a penny but in the bottom of the plug was GOLD ! This is the first ever gold neck less I have dug up in almost 18 years of hunting . As it turned out the penny was lower on the VDI number due to the gold being in the same hole . The gold neck less it's self came up as a +2 . It's a 14K gold rope chain type that weighs 4.84 grams , not bad . When I got up to move on from that hole I got another +2 at the same depth , 3 inches . It was the end part of the gold neck less . It was broken into 6 pieces . The other finds were two junk rings #5 and #6 . Total clad for two hours was $10.34 .

Wow! That's a nice chunk of gold right there! This is what the hunt is all about!

Congrats! Sweet gold find!
I have yet to find a gold chain, but from testing, the clasp is what registered on the detector. Yep !
Glad your ground isn't frozen tundra like it is here!

pl8man,

I forgot to mention that finding a gold chain especially fairly light is a bit of a crap shoot....I've managed one ladies gold necklace with a heart pendant that was all coiled up in a clump and came up pretty scratchy and likewise 2 ladies bracelets that were so so signal wise.

You have to be on your game to find them or dig a big whack of iffy targets.

I have a feeling this will be a down year on rings . I need to travel further away from home to even find one .

Man I know the feeling. Just finding a place I haven't hunted is pushing me farther away from home every time I go out.

Nice gold chain there ! Nothing like a road trip to put a bit of excitement back into your detecting .
