    Great day out bill how much does the ring weigh? And did you test it to see what karat it is? We would like to know I’m guessing 18k thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻

      @Jason D. What a find, indeed! Question is how did that ring get down into that hole so far into the ground… if we’re talking naturally, it would have taken, wow at least three to four hundred years? Probably longer. Maybe a ground dweller took it under ground for his own little keepsake… I think that’s the story here, but WOW I couldn’t believe he pulled that ring out of that deep hole!!

  • @aaronbazor2604
    @aaronbazor2604 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    That ring is a cool rare find and the nugget too!
    I've dug .22 casings a foot or more deep that scorpions took into their tunnels and that's what I expected it to be.
    They sound good that deep too.
    I left the area Monday and hunting Gold Basin for a week or two while it warms up some up towards Alaska.
    It was great to see you again my friend!
    Keep digging ⛏ 👌

    Hi Bill, thanks for the video! 1) Would a pinpointer be of use to you once you are in a hole? 2) Is a "hot rock" a rock that sets off a metal detector? 3) Have you ever found a meteorite? 4) Are you hunting on public land, or did you need permission/a permit? I realize that I asked a lot of questions - whatever you can answer is great thanks.

    I'm with you I think the pack rat took that ring down to that level. You did some crazy digging there. But you've got to keep digging until you find the target. They are disappointing when it turns out to be trash but part of the game. Great video and a good lesson Bill for those who give up early. You just never know what is making the detector sound off.
