Man CD,
I'm really getting tired of all your fantastic finds....
Especially while I sit here with a bad knee and can't get out and detect.

All kidding aside...
love your videos and finds.
Keep up the great work.

boy, you find the spots for sure. what do you think the ring is? love the buttons and you have been killing them, what a variety too

 

[Calabash Digger]

I don't know about the ring. I would love some info on it.

 

[vferrari]

The ring is cool. Time to update your avatar Sunburst. Lol. Wow - 2018 is unreal.

 

[Bart@Big Boys Hobbies]

Great finds!

Hey Calabash, is the red cloth pic everything you dug that day except the trash or is that everything you dug (period). If the latter , I am even more jealous.

 

[Joe hunter]

I’m jealous ,cant wait to hear more about the ring.

I was cherry picking , I did slip once and dug a shotgun shell that day..... I got a recycling plant in my back yard! Maybe 15-25 to 1 ratio on that site

Ok, so you are human and not some relic sucking alien from another planet. Lol.

 

[RustyGold]

Way to go CD! Always fantastic finds. Here’s to more sunbursts coming your way.

Waiting to see the ring cleaned up! Congrats!
I think it is a Victorian Era Egyptian revival ring w/ 3 twined cobras- IMHO

"As a result of the work on the Suez Canal in the mid-1860's and the Egyptian excavations of Auguste Mariette and the resultant exhibit of Egyptian treasures at the Exposition Universelle in 1867, a fascination for all things Egyptian developed."

Hope this helps!

That is awesome info Molewhacker. Whether or not it applies in this case (good chance it does) thanks for sharing the story. I love that stuff.

 

[Molewacker]

Just trying to correlate era of buttons with jewelry trends - this is another IMHO theory, but haven't seen a 3 snake ring yet.

"In 1840 Prince Albert designed a snake ring for Queen Victoria, two snakes wrapped round the finger in an enchanting symbol of eternal love"

There you go Calabash. Hurtin' feelings again. The button is outstanding, the ring is very cool!

Love that one piece sunburst NC, guessing that snake ring is Victorian, but that's a pretty wide spread. Nice work with the light cleaning you do, just enough dirt to see the details without nuking the button... Easier said then done. Keep crushing it
