yep, havent taken it off

took off this arvo, for an afternoon hunt. First good find, a roo half, that was deep, easily 8 inches. Second was a weird horse badge, rang-up like a halfpenny, and almost as deep. Then the 2 bucks, at 3inches. I was heading towards a big tree, and planned on working in circles outwards from the base. Got a TDI of 16, which was solid from all directions......as I was digging, think c'mon be my second ever gold.....

popped at 2inches:

woooohoooo its 9ct, onyx, with hopefully a real diamond, but I dont see why it wouldnt be. I dug 3 more ring pulls, and because I didnt have my glasses couldnt read how many cts, or if it was really gold. So after just 30mins of detecting, I raced home to find out Looks better now that its clean, fits me, but is a bit loose.

 

[Ramjet]

SWEET. Nice one Rocket. I'm jealous man. Bloody nice looking ring too, hope it fits me

 

[rocketaroo]

I like it so much, that I want to get it resized Be cool to wear a find

 

[Ramjet]

To big or to small? Ican stretch it a little. I have the gear from making coin rings.

Geez Rocket, that's beauty, the Diamond has gotta be real. Thought I heard someone yell "woooohoooo"off in the distance today.

More ice cream and cookies mate and will fit properly in no time.

Sure does mate, great feeling. Not a bad sized stone in it either.

A well deserved find Rocket, looks very chunky too. Looks like you've got one up on Ramjet this time around.

 

[rocketaroo]

Hoping RJ finds gold soon, he's doing everything right

You had better celebrate with a Tim-Tam and fatten those fingers up.

Awesome find Rocket, it has a very nice style and should be worn proudly.

Good one Rocket - must be giving Ramjet the willies that the student has out performed the teacher ... perhaps you will be able to talk RJ over to a Minelab so he can find gold too? What makes your ring find so nice is that it is a men's ring so at least you can wear it versus a woman's ring that is either lost to the Mrs or to the scrappers! What does it weigh?

Haha Paul. It's not the machine but the operator. Rocket digs more lower tones than I do. Bloody nice ring eh.
