Im just seeing what the most valuable find you have ever had is. This is my first year, so my best is probably a tie between a silver ring and an 1837 large cent.
Thanks

This might sound like a "cop out" type of answer, but I don't hunt for coins or jewelry.
The most valuable $$$ find that I have found is a no date SLQ.
I would say that the "most valuable" find that I have found has been the location of several narrow gauge railroad lines used for logging here in the Ozarks in the 1880's-1900's as well as the location of a couple of previously unknown logging camps. No money to be had, but history to be added to my area.

For detector finds, it would probably by my 1945 Walking Liberty half dollar, found in Hollywood in 1984.
Or the guy's sprinkler system, I found with my Micronta, back in 1978. He didn't know his yard had a sprinkler system. I found it for him, saving him a few thousand dollars, since he had been planning to have one put in.
For non-detector finds, it's a tossup between the Masonic watch fob and the HUMONGOUS yellow and white gold man's wedding ring that was cut and torqued into a shapless glob of heavy metal. Never got either appraised.

Well if you count the 9 pounds of gold I found in 7 minutes on my last hunt or the 600th silver that I found ths month then the number has to be pretty high although I never actually added it all up.
9 POUNDS OF GOLD? HOLY !!!!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding?

My two most valuable finds are pictured below, a 1787 Fugio in rough shape and a baby deer. Neither has any monetary value but to me their priceless.
