I went back where I left off yesterday, in ten minutes time and less than ten scoops I had this.

I shot out a couple text and jumped back in the lake, hunted for three hours and found five more silvers and another gold ring. Man that gold looks good in a scoop!
1952 S Franklin Half Dollar, 1962 D Washington Quarter, 1946, 1954, 1964, 1964 Roosevelt Dimes, 1927 Mercury Dime, and 1944 War Nickel
Enjoy the pix

The ring I found is not marked sterling like the one in the link, it tested 10 K just like the other signet ring I found yesterday. The other interesting thing was in the last link. It mention "Kiddiegem" rings, which I found last summer. Shame, there were five stones mounted in the gold version I found yesterday, all the stones are long gone.
 

Boy, that Benny looks nice. Congratulations on a great hunt.
 

Dang Brad! That is really a killer haul. Gold rings and a Franklin... way to hit the ball over the fence, little slugger!

I found a ring a couple of years ago, and the small stones were missing. SO, I scooped a bunch of the dirt and took it home with me and screened it, looking for the stones. Unfortunately I didn't find them...
 

Very productive hunt! congratulations!!
 

Very nice finds I see you have a deus have you tried the water proof kit I'd love to try the water but I don't want to drop a lot of cash on a water machine until I know I like it (pretty cold around here)
 

Wow awesome hunt...:icon_thumright:

I bought the waterproof kit and found some great stuff with it. Long term, I know it will leak eventually. Deus told me they would cover it. I will use it, it will sniff out chains where the Minelab won't, I just won't use it allot (for now)
When Deus comes out with a "otter box" type box I will use it more. The Minelab Excalibur is doing just fine.
 

Those Uncas rings must be all over the northeast Brad. They used 2 variations of the arrow in their mark. I have found one of each and I know Chris has found at least one Uncas ring too. You're doing us all proud with the water hunts. It's good seeing you be successful when I am not, lol. At least I can still see nice finds!
