However, the ring has an inscription that reads "R.C to B. F. Feb 2 1918". I found it next to a basketball court so obviously this ring was handed down through perhaps two or three generations (Im certain a 100 year old man wasnt out thee shooting hoops). So Im obligated to try to find the owner.

How does one go about this? Craigslist? Local newspaper? how long do you give the owner to respond?

In any event, Im still happy I found gold! And It will be nice to get the ring back to someone that likely has strong sentimental feelings for it.

My settings were 90 gain/ +3 thresh/ disc at 3/ Fe notched/ GB at 68/ 4 tones. It rang out at a solid 37. It was only just under the thatch, so about 1/2".]]> mojotrout Fisher "F" Series ForumFri, 17 May 2013 13:04:23 -0500 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?37,1909824,1909824#msg-1909824 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?37,1909824,1909824#msg-1909824 JoeDiggs Fisher "F" Series ForumFri, 17 May 2013 00:56:25 -0500 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?37,1909783,1909783#msg-1909783 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?37,1909783,1909783#msg-1909783

Basically, I got skunked. 1 stinky clad quarter, 1980 something, and a butt load of bottle caps. Oh, and one really good deep signal with nothing else around it that got me excited. Kept hitting high 80's, low 90's at 6"....turned out to be a rail road spike at 10". The nearest railroad is a mile away. :confused:

Not my first experience like this either. Hear in the Mid Hudson we have a lot of stone walls and foundations out in the woods. And I mean A L O T !. Unfortunately they attract similar behavior. Tons of beer cans and broken glass bottle caps. I've been skunked every time I go to these sites.

BTW I'm running the F70 with a Fisher 11" DD so I'm in better shape handling the trash than if I had the concentric, but man it get's tiring digging so much crap with so little reward. Thank god for tot lots and schools to bank some higher volume clad on to break up the disappointment of the woodsy hunts.

Really gotta get one of those 5" dd snipers for the woodsy hunts, just a matter of waiting out a good deal on a used one as I can't bring myself to pay the $135 for a new one. Ho Hum.

ps...a 15gr gold chain hits at 18-19 on the F70..and can only be heard with moderate settings when the coil is within 4" of it either balled up or strung out...in comparison, a very small 2gr gold ring hits at 23...perhaps its worth while to go after a few of those strange signals this summer in likely locations. Especially if you raise the coil a little and lose the signal, it might not be iron or foil after all...]]> mudpuppy Fisher "F" Series ForumFri, 10 May 2013 14:28:19 -0500 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?37,1907910,1907910#msg-1907910 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?37,1907910,1907910#msg-1907910
I would like to catalog my finds, but I don't know where to find software for this. Are there any free software programs out there, or even paid programs for doing this?

Any help would be great!

Thanks guys!
