2 days of pulltabs and then.......

[Heatho]

A mate lost his wedding ring the other day so went for a look with the aldi detector to see if I could find it, well still in the process of finding it but while looking found this instead.

Just paid off the Aldi 11 times over, SWEET!!!!!! About $1600 in finds so far with it.

Got about $20 in goldies also and only 1 pulltab.

That's the stuff that detecting dreams are made of!

With riches like that mate, I am in

Have you considered chucking the diamonds out and setting some of your sapphires?

 

[Dozer]

Great find. These Aldi detectors are proving themselves.

 

[Heatho]

Was the first 10m of small grassy slope on a sports field, hope I can find my mates ring too. Anytime Wally, I think this place should keep us busy.

Great Idea mate. Bloody small Diamonds, though I do have some small Sapphs of very nice colour which may cut to suit.

 

[Heatho]

Great find. These Ali detectors are proving themselves.

Sure are Dozer, like a stealth detector, one of these and a pinpointer and you can cherrypick any good sounding target at 10-15 cm down and move fast, can cover a bit of ground very quickly. Wish they made an 11 inch coil for it.

 

[Danmuss]

Give me a clue mate did u find it close to CBD surroundings or west way lol

 

[Paulmarr]

Sweet find!

 

[Heatho]

Not near the CBD and opposite of West. More to the North East mate.

 

[Sa_bogan]

nice find mate, are you giving this ring a value of $1600? the reason i ask is i would love to sell my gold at retail cost

 

[Heatho]

Hey Sa thanks, is 1100rrp, dunno in reality what it's really worth. Plus the other ring, few nice Silvers and a lot of goldies, all adds up roughly $1600, though yeah maybe knock 5 hundred off the ring, lol. Got a bit excited, only just got back still high on Gold when I typed it. Still having a good month though.

All the best mate.

 

[Sa_bogan]

ahh ok , yeah i know the feeling and when you find something like that you can imagine the cost of it new! I have found that unless the rings are in mint no one wants to give you much for them, so i work on melt value. The mens 9k bracelet i found was 14 grams and would have been easy over $1000 when it was bought, how ever i got around $250ish for melt value. Just something to keep in mine

Keep those rings coming!!!!!
