Found this tonight at a ball park in Wausau WI. It was the only target I decided to dig up and I'm sure glad I did. Looks like its gold plated and it's missing two of the rocks on it. I will have to check if its genuine, but it sure made my day.

Real or not nothing beats the feeling of seeing it for the first time and anticipation of real or fake. Keep at it....theres more to be found! Just a word of advice.....dont just dig a certian tone or number. Learn the machine. For instance....I dug a cool silver ring at 2" that rang up like a dime and gave a consistent 82 on my AT Pro. Then I dug a similar silver ring at 6" that rang up less than a nickel or pull tab. I almost skipped it as I was thinking foil. Every direction I swung at it from showed a consistent 47 and gave a high tone chirp now and then....glad I dug it! If I had to guess....I would say 80% of the rings I found have showed up as pulltabs.....dig those signals not just the "pretty" signals :) HH
I had a buddy come over with a diamond tester and it appears that they are fake. I had a hunch they would be knowing the ring was electro plated. There's always more rings out there!

What kind of rig do you use Bob? I think I might want to do something like that, if my knees will let me.
Way to go. Nice ring.
