My Legend is still in for repair, so I've been using my Simplex for the past week, and it's been doing great. A few days ago, I came up with two silver rings, plus a bunch of clad. Yesterday, I went to a town park I've never visited before, and had more great luck. The park was built in the 80's, so I wasn't expecting to find very old coins. But I was looking forward to the visit to see what might come up. I was walking around the trees that mainly are on the outside perimeter of the park. Walked about 3/4 of the way around, picking up some interesting things along the way: first thing was a beat up stop watch, only about an inch under the dirt. Scored a half dozen quarters, and some other clad as I was going, then came across a Super Speed 308 cartridge, which was a surprise. A little further away, came across a 22 casing, and then got a car key. Finally made it almost first circle to where I started, and under a pine tree, get a strong 49 VDI on the Simplex. Dropped the digger into the soft dirt, and 2-3 inches down, out pops a ring. I could tell right away it was gold. Gave it a light brush off, and could see it was a 14K mens ring. Gave the proper thanks for the find, and tucked that bad boy in my pocket. Fits pretty good on my finger. Another sweet find with the Simplex!
