For one reason or another, the base riff in Chickenfoot's "Bigfoot" reminds me of the tone of Minelab BBS gold (which I find to be just lower than a nickel).
When I hear a lower tone, I start humming that base riff. If it's close, I get a good feeling. I got that feeling yesterday. Two scoops down, kicked the pile, and "There you are!"
I go to put the ring in the coin pocket of my 501's and... SNAP! I could feel two pieces in my hand and I'm thinking, 'Great! Did I get it all?'. I knew a broken piece would be too small to detect with the SovWOT. No way I was pulling it back out of my pocket to check. When I got home, I pulled out the big chunk with the stones. Digging... digging... checking in corners... there's the second piece. 'Wait! D@mn! Too small. D@mn! I lost a piece!' Digging... digging... along one of the seems... There you are!"!
Amazing how a tiny chunk of 10k can get me all worked up! 2.78g total. #3 for the year worth... wait for it... $44.89! "We're eatin' good tonight, Martha!"

Good job regardless... breaking it just makes it easier to sell as scrap 
Next time kick the pile a little softer so you don't damage the ring. 
I'm with Craig on it being easier to place in the melt pile now after you just take out the stone.
I was expecting to see you and F4kin' Lama this weekend. Did you guys hang up your detectors? 
My wife hates that I am so literal in my thinking... it is what it is 
Hope things are good Ron!
