I stopped at a sports field on the way home yesterday. I've hunted this field many times before. It holds old coins. But the old coins are few and far between any more. I did find 2 more wheaties. So I've started digging some of the low tones in hopes for some gold. Knowing that this field has been in use since the 1860's-1870's for everything from the traveling circus to modern day football and soccer games. I figured there has to be some gold out there somewhere. And believe me, there's plenty of low tones to check!
It just stopped raining when I got there. The forth hole hole I dug I seen that flash of gold I was hoping for!!
Here it is all cleaned up!!
Unfortunately while I was cleaning it with the toothbrush Jesus fell off the cross.
I'll defiantly be taking this one to a professional jeweler to have it fixed! This is one of the coolest rings I've ever found!!
Not to mention it a 14K. Usually if I am lucky enough to find a gold ring it's 10K. AND this one ain't bent either!
As always.... Thanks for lookin' & HH!!

But now after this find, I'm gonna go back out there and try and cleean up some more in hopes of finding some more of the yellow stuff. 
Wish me luck.
