WINNER #1
My International Favorite Find for September 2020 is the 18k. Gold Claddagh Ring, discovered by Jasja H. from Europe with her AT Max.

Jasja’s success story: It was a wet and windy day 2 weeks ago. Still suffering from the summer heat of the weeks before when it was simply too hot to go out with Max, we decided to go out and enjoy this cooler weather and hope for some nice finds. To make a long story short....after about 40 holes with just junk in it...and being ambushed by the heavy rain and wind, I gave up and started making my way back. Still swinging Max around because, who knows, maybe one more signal...maybe one more shot to clear my mood.

You would not believe it, but it came! A loud and clear signal (thinking it would probably be another bottle cap) and then this beauty showed itself!!! An amazing 18K gold Claddagh ring!!! For a moment I could not breathe or even think, but the feeling it gave me....my precious!!! And yes, it absolutely changed my mood! Rain? Wind? Who cares, I found my treasure!!!

Jasja H. WINS an ACE Apex Metal Detector! Congratulations!!!

WINNER #2
My second international Favorite Find for September 2020 is the Edward III Half Noble, 1369-1377, discovered by Emma R. from the U.K. with her Ace 300i.

Emma’s success story: Ever since I was a little girl I’ve collected coins. I dreamt of finding my own coins and I asked Santa Claus for a metal detector. I was lucky enough to get my first metal detector when I was 10, but it couldn’t even find the silver sixpence hidden in the Christmas pudding (it definitely wasn’t a Garrett).

26 years later, my husband-to-be bought me a Garrett Ace 300i with a Nel Tornado Coil for my birthday (May 20th this year). In the last 3 months we’ve spent most of our days off, out detecting on our permissions together. I love my Garrett. It’s simple to use and it’s a real coin monster. There’s barely a day when I don’t come home with a coin.

We were out detecting yesterday (August 31 2020) when my Garrett (on the Jewellery mode) indicated a target of 80-82. I thought it was going to be a bottle top as I’d dug up lots that morning with the same target ID. My heart skipped a beat when this beautiful gold coin appeared 10 to 15cms deep in the hole. Isn’t it gorgeous? I’m at the start of my metal detecting journey and I’ve had my first Gold Coin already. It’s been identified as an Edward III post-treaty period Half Noble from between 1369-1377. Minted in London.

I won’t ever detect with anything other than a Garrett. Here’s to many more amazing finds! Thank you for making it possible with your awesome metal detectors.

Emma R. WINS an ACE Apex Metal Detector! Congratulations!!!
