Wasatchgold Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Hi all, I know I’m currently listed as a lurker here, but I had to reregister awhile back. So, here I am with the best find of the year and I have to follow Gerry. Geez… a regular guy don’t stand a chance. The reason I don’t post here often is that I’m embarrassed to show my finds compared to everyone else on the forum. Especially Gerry! i found gold ring #6 for the year. 7.4 grams of 14k with a 5.5mm stone identified by a jeweler as a diamond just under 3/4 carat. It’s the biggest single diamond stone I’ve found. No inscription, marked 14k, almost index finger deep, 15 on the NOX, dirt fishing an itty-bitty kiddie snow sled hill. The second gold from that park hill this year. Keep on sledding’ kiddies! Anyway. Merry Christmas Dear!! J from Sandy, sorry, I don’t take photos any better than I make computers work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt4gold Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 That is indeed a real nice find. I’m sure your wife will be pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinclair Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Congrats, that's a nice ring! Biggest single stone I've found has ~0,35ct / 4,5mm and I only ever found 2 rings with a bigger stone over a course of 5 years and a LOT auf hours and holes on the beach. 8 hours ago, Wasatchgold said: I don’t post here often is that I’m embarrassed to show my finds compared to everyone else on the forum. No need to be embarrassed - depending on where you're located etc., every find might be "valuable"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valens Legacy Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Great find and I think it is much better than Gerry's find, as it is a find from a place that won't have tourist's all the time. Your wife will be very pleased to have it unless she is picky, in that case just send it to me and I will share it with my girlfriend. Good luck on your next outing.

Wasatchgold Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 Thanks for the comments guys. My wife is picky, but I think she’ll like this one. of the thousand+ rings I’ve found since 2015, she’s only wanted a couple of dozen. This ring is the best of 2023 for me. she wears a lot of rings to work.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
