On my 4th hunt using my F70, a time when everything was still jumpy and confusing, I came across this thing in a picnic area that was dense with trash.
I had hit this area over and over with other detectors and coils plus I assume so had many others.
I was in 4H where the nickel tones were changed to high and I rolled over this thing that was real close to some sort of trash.
The high tone was really short, normally I might have thought it was just a false signal but that pure sweet sounding tone, as short as it was, stopped me in my tracks so I went back to examine it closer.
With some coil manipulation around the area I finally got it too repeat so I opened a hole.
The trash was no more than an inch or two away in the sidewall but I never took the time to see what it was because of what I found when I looked in the hole.
6.2 grams of 14k white and yellow gold.
This one I kept for myself.
I went on to find lots more with that coil, plenty of coins plus a lot of silver and gold jewelry.
