Whata Hoot!

[Ill Digger]

I had a couple of hours after work, and before the sun set, to make it to one of my favorite parks for a short hunt tonight. I only ended up staying for a little over an hour. I got a few clad coins a 1950d wheatie thumbsup01 But the find of the night was this silver & turquoise owl ring |:cheering:
She was pretty bent up when she first popped out of the ground crying01
Snapped this pic with my new phone lol

Here's the nights after work hunt goodies thumbsup01

The ring isn't stamped anywhere. :dontknow: But I know it's silver. :yes:

The ring was pretty bent outta shape. So I bent it half way back to roundness with a small (toothless) pair of pliers and finished fixing it on my mandrel.

There! |:cheering: Much better! :happydance01:

Thanks for lookin' & HH this weekend everyone! :grin:
