Helluva day. I am glad you took those silver coins home before trying to "field-clean" them. That could've been tragic for that GREAT seated dime. Such a nice coin. Plus, I love the before & after pics.
Thank you for a great post!

Wow that is one heck of a find, I would have to have run home to clean it and check it out. Glad the ring called you back, always, always recheck the hole.

Re: Amazing Diamond Ring Found Today. 1800's Silver Also. What A Day.( Apraised)
Thanks alot everyone.
I've found some nice coins in my time. Even have found alot of nice relics. But this one was my biggest find yet. I've found coins worth 500.00. I've found relics in the hundreds.
But never broke into the thousands category in this hobby. It's a great fealing to find something this awesome. I still hope to turn up that gold coin one day.
I never clean a find in the field. Alot of people do. I have patience. I threw that diamond ring in my ciggarette pack and kept on hunting. I've made so many good finds in the past that I am used to it. I expect to come home with good stuff.
The wife would like to get into detecting. She wants a top end unit. With our kids being so younge we can't go together yet. But one day we will.
I always recheck the hole. This was a once in a lifetime mistake. Like I said before. I got side tracked by talking with my brother and totally forgot to check the hole.
Thanks again everyone for making this topic so popular.

Thanks alot Joe.
I've been so busy working lately. I haven't been able to hunt at all in the last few weeks. Weather here has been in the low 60's to.
Oh well I guess. Atleast I found the Diamond to end the year. It was like this one will hold you up for a little while. It's like my detector knew I wasn't gonna be out again for awhile and gave me this great ring. I doubt it but it's funny how things work.

Jeremy,
Love the ring and the story. I'm thrilled to see you got such a good find. I always enjoy your posts.
I'd also like to get hunting with my wife. She's interested but we only have one detector now.
I am still looking for a gold ring... a diamond ring would be even better!

Re: Amazing Diamond Ring Found Today. 1800's Silver Also. What A Day.( Apraised)
Thanks alot Bjorn.
I try to tell my stories step by step to bring the reader as close as possible.It was a day to remeber. I think I could get the wife into detecting if we had the time to go together.
Someone always has to watch the kids. I think later in life we'll hunt together. Once the kids are grown and out of the house. But for now I'll try to find 2 hunters worth a yr lol.
That first gold ring can really be a pain to find. It was hard for me to find my first also. It will come. Try and expand your digging zone. Dig alot of tabls and foil if you can.
It will come and when it does hopefully it will be a big one. I still remeber my first gold ring. It was a large one to. It was worth the wait. I'm sure it will be for you to.
I also wanted to thank Tnet for putting this post into the best of tresurenet. This is a great site. And I will always post on it. The people and moderators are really great on here.
Take care all,
HH Jer

This post got me to thinking. I know that's dangerous. Anyway I found a silver ring last year with a big stone in it and posted it on the forum. several people told me they thought it wasn't a real diamond because it was in a silver set. I just put it away in the top of my closet and didn't think anything else about it. I had a friend look at it who is knowledgible about stones and he said he thinks it is a real diamond because of the way it is set in the ring. I'm going to have it checked this afternoon and find out for sure. Monty
