I found my biggest gold ring with my new Nox!

I always dig zinc signals. About half of the gold rings that I have found rang up in the range, although I thought that they were a little more stable numbers and did not jump around. congrats on a great looking ring!

I found my biggest gold ring with my new Nox!

Hi NCtoad !,

I see from your Profile you have the Minelab Equinox 800 and from your post #33 on page #4, your first reply to Compass (copied below) regarding the 10 gold rings you tested presumably with your nox 800, that depending on the size and thickness, they came in anywhere from 5 up to 21 on your display screen, same as Zinc pennies.

Can you tell me which metals and coins your 5 through 21 numbers correlate with the Tesoro Compadre target indicators shown in the attached picture of it's console ? Perhaps listing your (17) numbers in groups that approximately match the printed target sectors on the Compadre console would be sufficient for me and easier for you.(?)

Thank you! I have around 10 gold rings that I just tested. Depending on the size and thickness they came in anywhere from 5 up to 21. So yes, you just never know...it pays to dig!

Thanks in advance NCtoad ! :thankyou:

Awesome find Toad!!! Amanda and I are getting ready to upgrade machine's and I've been on the fence with getting a Nox. The last few days I keep seeing stories like this where you guys are finding these awesome finds jn spots you've already pounded haha I think this settles it!
 
I can't believe this! ... I had been over that same area many times in the past and probably had my coil over it, but didn't dig it because I thought it was a zincoln.

And THAT is why I dig those penny signals! :yes:

No honker of a gold ring like that for me, yet, though... Great find! Congratulations!
 
Gold class ring is on my bucket list! Good work and HH

That is a great start with the new machine Scott. Congrats on a huge Gold recovery. Trapper

Not just honkers. My GF got a men's gold ring at just over 8 grams. Was 14k. Hit a 20/21 zinc signal on my Nox.

Thanks guys, but do you realize this happened 1 year and 3 months ago?:lol: That's how long I've had my nox. I just found another 14k ring with my nox last Sunday and it was the first gold ring ever found by me in the water. I posted it in the beach and water section. That makes three gold rings with the nox. So counting the one in this thread they rang up: 20/21, 17 and 12.
