After a longer than usual dry spell, I finally broke the ice with this tiny, ( 1.6g ) 18K religious metal.

Conditions have been less than favorable in most of the spots we have been hunting. When I do find a thin spot, I slooooow way down and take advantage of it.

This small metal were the results using the DFPI and was a very faint signal that paid off.

I knew I could see a mark on the shank when you showed me it.
Nice to meet you today.

You have good eyesight Lee, I can't believe you could see it through the junk that was at the mark area.

Nice meeting you, can't believe you belong to the club too.

Nice find!!
Congrats! :grin:
It might not be very big but when you start talking the higher karats, well...it don't take too much to add up. ;)
I checked it out. At today's prices 1.6g of 18k= $61.96! ::huh::
Not too shabby! |:cheering:

Have to mention that to a buddy of mine that found an 18k, 15g ring :smitten: yesterday, but then again he probably already knows that.

It that the scrap price? It looks to be Italian and is in good shape. I would say it's worth a Benjamin Franklin at least. Very Sweet. What is the depiction on the medallion? Is that Jesus on a throne or some Catholic Saint? Congrats!

Yes, that is the scrap price.

Because you can see the stars around the halo, it is usually an indication that it is the Blessed Mother, and I would say she is holding Baby Jesus with two of the wise men kneeling .
