yes it should have no worries finding a gold ring - these Delta's are a very underated metal detector

Sorry, metal detectors cannot find loose diamonds . Since you have and idea where it is, use a flour strainer to sift the soil.

No. It doesn't find gold underground. It is a radiation detector. My daughter just returned from Japan with the instrument left on in her baggage and recorded a max of 694 micro-Sieverts per hour.

No, this does not replace a Metal Detector. But it is a great tool one uses once their medal detector has located an object below the ground level. The Garrett Pro-pointer helps you locate an item quickly. Would suggest finding him a good metal detector. If he is just getting into this hobby I would recommenda Garrett Ace 250 which is a good one, light, easy to use.I purchase my Garrett at Kellyco's local store, also have awebsite kellycodetectors.com . Also suggest viewing both items on Youtube.

If it is inside the home, any detector will be difficult to locate the ring. This one will definitely pick it up, however it will ring up nearly the same as a nail or pull tab.

I found a silver plated pocket watch case 6" in the ground so I don't see any reason why you couldn't find gold just listen to your head set!

I got this for Christmas and just tried it - none of my silver jewellery came clean. Neither did the diamond in my wedding ring. Very disappointed!

If close enough, it will alert to metallic presence. Not the best choice thou for searching larger areas, as you must be very close to the object you're searching for.

I haven't used mine yet but as I understand most all metals. It has different settings for what particular metal you are wanting to detect.

It is good on gold rings, but if you are looking for gold targets less than 1-2 grams, I would use another detector. VLF gold detectors like the X-terra 705, Gold Bug, AT Gold, or even an $150 Tesaro Compare will find gold specs better. Gold chains are detected no better than there biggest link by any detector. If you are gold prospecting consider a PI detector, instead of the VLF detectors above. The ETrac is tuned for finding silver coins 2 grams or larger and is one of the best at doing so. Nuggets under 1gram and a most chains will barely sound off if you rub them against the coil.

Yes it Measures Carats, grams, oz, ozt (troy ounce), dwt (penny weight), gn (grain).

Nope, some say yes but if rings don't match something will be missing I found out the hard way

Depends on the gem in question. This is only intended for diamond testing. Other gems have other methods of testing.

It detects gold, silver and iron and gives an approximate depth notation so you know if you are looking at something close to the surface or deeper. It has a headphone jack to allow more accurate listening, also silent operation which is important in public areas. You can tune it to rule out metals you don't want to pick up like aluminum or copper, for instance. The different tones, once you learn them, help to distinguish between the different metals as well.

I wish I knew!! I use it to find cartridge casings. It works really good in my opinion. I've found nails, screws pop cans shredded by the lawn mower. But alas, no gold. Good luck.

I have only used it on silver and gold so far with great results. Maybe try a small amount on the clasp and see what happens?
