Minelab Quattro Finds 14 kt Gold Nugget Ring!

I took the Quattro straight from the box and right onto the beach (Daytona). The first two items I dug were 2005 brand spanking new dimes.  I thought - oh great that is what this detector is going to do is pick up all new coins.  I was a little discouraged at first and not to mention that there were many on lookers.  So, I moved under a stair ramp that was closed (due to hurricane damage). I could tell that someone had been sitting in the sand under the stairs.  The first signal I got was a nice deep tone like pull tab or nickel. Hoping for gold, lo and behold there it was at 11 1/2 inches down a beautiful 14 kt gold nugget ring. 

I did a little jumping dance for myself and thought I should immediately call and report to KELLYCO, then it occurred to me that there could more jewelry.  I began swinging again and pulled out a 1916 barber dime at approx 17" deep.  Of course I didn't know then that is was a 1916, I just knew it was silver.  Right next to that almost in the same darn hole was a 1943 silver quarter at approximately 15".  Needless to say, I was ecstatic at that point.  I continued hunting with a great big grin on my face!
