New (to me) Compadre and a challenge for it/me

I won the eBay bid for an older model Tesoro Compadre with the 7" coil, it arrived this morning and it is mint and works perfectly. A woman that works with my wife told her that she lost a gold ring 40 or so years ago. She remembers that she lost it in the flower garden but she isn't sure if it was at her place or her husbands (boy friend at the time) place. It was a ring that he gave her before they were married, he passed away a few years ago and I would love to find it for her. Not sure how big of an area the flower gardens are as I have never been to either place but am eager to start searching when the weather permits and when her & I can get together at a time that will work for us. To be contuinued................
 
Hey Ski....

Man you have a thing for those Compadre's. I'm beginning to think you want to try every serial number in the line....haha

I want to see pics of that ring when you find it and look forward to seeing the detector in the classifieds in the near future!

:nono: you must be talkin bout the other SkiWhiz :rofl:. Soon as the rains quits I want to take it out and adjust the sensitivity until it is just a hair below chirping then give er a test run. I suppose it isn't out of the question coming up for sale over the winter months :drool:
 
I just sold a 7" coil one , didin't want to part with it but this economy and me having 3 tesoros already and only 2 arms, made the decision more bearable, lol but i'm keeping my 5.75 for life. Regadless I have hit smalll gold rings at iron setting and run on it pretty much all the time. Good luck with you r hunt I'm sure you will find many treasures and hopefully the ring as well.
 
If he just lost it, don't bother with the insides until after you find it. It will hit a ring at 8" as is-unless it's a small one. Get the ring first!
