Cal_Cobra Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Nice job JP, that's the kind of vids I'd enjoy seeing until I get mine! Are you in San Diego? I'm in NorCal, so am looking forward to hitting HMB, Santa Cruz, etc., to see how it does. This winter has sucked for beach erosion though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddbbq Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Any markings on the ring as it looks in the photo as too yellow for brass. I would atleast have it acid tested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a storm or at least a good swell to move some sand. This is going to be a fun detector! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would atleast have it acid tested. I was hoping someone would say that. I am still wondering. No markings, although I have a couple gold rings that are not marked. It rang kinda high for gold, mid 20's. I did do acid test and it slowly dissolved at 10k. 9k maybe will ring a little higher? I have not found one. It was heavily tarnished like the silver that comes out of there. It won't go in the junk ring jar just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddbbq Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 did the acid turn green which is a sure sign of brass if not probably 9k and tarnished due to high copper content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it did not turn green. Would it be magnetic at 9k. My cheap magnet doesn't attract it, i have a better one on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thegoldenone Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I was going to say something about that ring in the photo too I'd say it's probably 9k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddbbq Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 nope not magnetic...9k or maybe even less but I am 90% sure it is a gold ring IMHO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
