A very good week, a few days ago I was detecting the wet sand, real black, kinda trashy with old machine gun bullet heads and brass, most were spent but a few live rounds still there, and the usual nails, wire, pull tabs and of course hot women.Even though I swear up and down I found them with my detector, the wife won't let me bring them home. I was using two tone ferrous open screen, seawater on, target trace on, deep off, fast off,normal tone, sen on 22 manual and stock coil. when I heard the yellow 10K gold ring, it was a foot deep, CTX had no problem hitting it. Today same settings only with the 17'' coil, The hit was hard and loud,solid 12-14 with target trace bright red. it's was a silver necklace and pendent with a 10K gold ring on the chain too. The ring has 5 small diamonds and a amethyst stone. The locket has( Forever in my heart ) well I guess not no more, till he buys her a new one. Gonna hold on to them till gold goes back up, I hope!

Good job gene. I'm jealous we have a foot of snow here

Nice going Gene, good to see someone getting out.

Spring will be in the air here in Iowa tomorrow with a high of 36. Woo Hoo!

Good to hear your holding on to that gold. Don't worry the price will go up again in a very big way! Most mining companies are losing money at these low prices and that doesn't fly for long.

How about a video of all those finds you can't bring home?

Way to go Gene! Nice finds. Nothing like eye-candy when detecting. Some GOLD don't hurt either. Hope you and yours have a great Valentines day. HH

Great job from a fellow, saltwater CTXer !

That pendant would present a strong response - a high conductor with circular form (to generate strong eddies). Since any detector should have alerted to it - it might have been a recent drop, or, there aren't many people detecting that area.

Great post! Great finds! Great sense of humor! Sometimes there are women around where I hunt, but they are far from hot and it's "pay to play"...

 

[harryhh]

Great finds Gene! How deep was the pendent?

 

[G. E. Edwards]

The pendent was around 10'' down and it had been there awhile, due to the pictures were there but washed out white,and the silver was tarnished quite a bit I used tar-x and then buffed them up. they look new now. Due to the gold ring on the necklace too it gave me high and medium sound, but a strong hard hit.

I'm hoping to find more gold with the new detector, love those pic's.
