    Ring #136 is Gold with a nice diamond !

    Got out this morning with my Son Carson and my friend Kevin to hunt a large school field . We were finding clad everywhere ! I got a nice +18 , +20 at 1 inches along the side lines , ring #136 for the year . It didn't look great so I put it in my pouch and kept hunting . I found two Kennedy halfs and some kind of whats it ? After about 3 hours we were done . We walked back to the trucks to show what we had found . I took the ring out and cleaned it off a bit , could it be gold ? My son looks inside and sees 14K !!! It has a nice clear stone , maybe a diamond . I had gold and didn't even know . Total clad for the hunt was $11.91 .

    Agreed. I have an idea of what a relic room should look like. How about a ring room? Pawn Stars? Great find!
