After we wrapped up our hunt yesterday and got back to the truck, we compared finds. I showed my Buddy the 14K wide band and a junk ring.

When I got home I came so close to throwing the lady's ring in the junk pile until I realized that they wouldn't put a beautiful stone like that in a junker.

I hooked it up to my electrolysis machine for about 30 seconds and then
cleaned it up with baking soda and a tooth brush....wala a 10K.
