After the rain passed this morning, I got out this afternoon for a couple hours to the local football field. The third solid signal in, using the 5x10 with the Equinox along the chain link fence, turned out to be a crispy necklace about an inch down that had three pendants on it. After seeing two that had rusted, the hope for number three was not high. After rubbing a bit, I got my phone out to zoom in on the top of the hanger to check for hallmarks. Surprise, 14K! The signal was a 16-17 with jumpy tones as well.

About an hour later came a strong 9. Expecting aluminum, I was elated to find the second possible gold of the day! 

When I got home, I noticed the resizer on the ring and that there was gold that was coming off in a strip. My heart sank. But then, I noticed the gold was coming from the resizer. My heart was reinflated!

Great finds, and I want your park.

Good luck on your next hunt.

Looks like the 10x5 got you closer to the fence. Great stuff! Hope there is a princess to bestow it upon. ☺

I've hit the field with the 12x15" many, many times. Now it's time to clean up the edges. The 5x10" does an exceptional job of picking through the clutter. I've found three pieces of gold within one week that were pulled from the fence area. Guess where I'm headed back to again!

Way to get up close and personal with that fence! That 10x5 can pull out some great signals next to metal barriers that the bigger coils miss. Well done!
