Finds on my road trip so far.
Only had a few hours to look around to date. Am in California for the next 4 days with nothing to do but check out the parks and schools.

Nice find! Specially the ring, I think I see a stamp on its inside. Is it gold?

I have been reading your posts about your finds for a time now and I am planning on purchasing a metal detector this summer. Unfortunately I didnt find it anywhere in Egypt except at radioshack.

http://www.radioshackegypt.com/

Do you think any of these 3 detectors is worth buying, even as a start?

Its a gold ring 10k with some tiny diamond chips in it.

EgCollector. There are companies in Europe that will ship to Egypt. when I get back home I will do some research. I have no knowledge on the radioshack ones...

I love looking at everybody's finds ... it's so difficult not to go out and get a metal (or cotton ) detector for myself!

EgCollector,
Are there any limitations to where one can use a metal detector in Egypt?
There certainly must be a lot of places to find old coins.

EgCollector be very careful detecting as there are still unexploded ordnance like landmines and bombs from all the different wars that have ravaged Egypt in the last 70 years,just be careful how you dig.
