Went out to the fields today found none of our better fields have been cut yet. A few of our older permissions at least let us stretch our legs. Diane got a 1930's wheat and I got some gold! A 1950 class ring but only School ID is the letter "S" I am looking into trying to find any schools in the vicinity that it might fit. Has initials and is marked HJ10k the manufacturer is Herff Jones who made super bowl rings and even the Heismann trophy plus other quality awards.

yes when you hunt fields gold rings don't come out often. Need to find the school, difficult with just the letter S to go on. I will continue research on it and keep the forum posted.
