It's been another good week using the Vortex. I'm still using the zero-disc/25-Khz set up as it will read my cheap nickel plate over steel coins, no matter how much rust they have accumulated. Ring number 20 looked like a cheap chain held together with some wire or elastic string. Not so as I tried putting it on my finger. One of the BB sized beads separated and there was no hole for any string or wire, yet had incredible strength to form a ring.
Here's a closeup of the ring. It's made of neodymium magnets which explains it's strength. It has the ability to pick up a lot of coins, yet stay intact as a ring. Now that's a first!
I got out three times this past week. Here's my best day prospecting for gold from last Sunday. The photo in the upper right hand corner is the high-banker I used to get the flour gold.
