    FOUND A 10k GOLD CLASS RING TODAY ! Some silver on Friday

    I decided to hunt a school that I had never hunted before . I found the best find of the three hour hunt in the first 30 minutes ! I had a +26 VDI on my Whites M6 at 5 inches and thought maybe gold ? I was right !! I saw a beautiful gold ring at the very bottom of the hole . I didn't know it was a class ring till I popped it out of it's dirt cocoon lol . It has a full name on the inside and as I type this up already have a lead on the owner . If it's the right person she is just up the street from my Parents , only a couple of miles from me ! Total clad for three hours is $14.34 !
    I'll hope to have it back to her by tonight ! I'll keep you all posted thumbsup01 .

    Also on Friday I found two pieces of silver . I nice .925 ring and a .925 crucifix . Yesterday , Saturday I found a junk ring . Ring total for the year now at 178 !

    The class ring is an absolute beauty. I'd love to see something like that come from the dirt.
    At 178 rings for the year... we can officially call you the ring master. |)
    Congrats PL8MAN on a very impressive year.

    Ring returned !!! Jessica came over to my house and I gave her pictures of the ring when I found it and then gave her the class ring . She had lost it in her Freshman year of high school not too long after getting it . As it turned out she went to a different school for her final two years and never got another class ring . She is very happy lady thumbsup01
