Default update! cheap ring turned out to be silver ring

update! the cheap ring I found monday after work turned out to be silver ring with a tiger eye stone,
I just discovered it while I was sorting out all of my junk,
the ring got wet with drops of salt water from this morning hunt and it reacted with the tarnish,
here is the post for those that didn't see it;

and the picture right now,


P.S. I going metal detecting right now, check back you guys tonight.

I said it in that earlier post, I love that ring even with the corrosion.

I love it more now, that it's silver.

thanks, I didn't feel much energy today and only hunted the dry sand for a short time with my GT, found 6 quarters, 2 dimes, 3 nickels and 2 penny's.
tomorrow I will play with my F-75 in the dry sand, it's lighter to swing and want to learn how to use it, the first day I use it found much deeper coins in the dry sand then the GT,

Nice ring!

I can do the dry sand for 2-3 hours before I've had enough of it. Need to get that Sov GT here and get to the beach!
