I dug up my first gold ring for 2010 last night and its a good one. Not only is it gold but its a professional hockey championship ring. Its a Western Hockey League Championship ring that was won back in 1986 and the guy that this ring belongs to went on to play in the NHL. His name in on the otherside and I will be contacting him to get it back to him. Just wanted to share this with you all. I was totally blown away at this find. It is by far my best find so far. I found it at a low tide at a beach that has guys detecting it all the time. Pretty lucky to find it. Good luck to everyone. Thank you.

Hi there, just wanted to let everyone know that I mailed Marks ring back awhile ago and I communicated with him yesterday and he has cofirmed to me that he has received his ring from the post office and so the championship ring is now back in his possession finally after all these years. Mark and I live very far away from each other so I am sorry I cannot post a returne picture of us together which would of been cool but I think when Mark gets a chance he may post a picture but the main thing is he now has his ring back. Thanks for the kind comments and happy hunting.

He owes you at least a couple of good seats at a game or two.

Hey Canadian digger, thats right, this is a championship ring for the players of the Kamloops Blazers of the whl league. I just did some research on the guy because his name is on the ring and I found out that he went on to play in the NHL.

Re: GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!

Now that is very cool and I bet that player will be very happy to get it back! When a sport is basically your life, I think the accomplishments you achieve along the way mean a heck of a lot. It's funny his greatest loss is probably your greatest find.

Looks like there's several to choose from... Darcy Norton, Rob Brown, Mark Recchi, and those are just the ones I recognize and don't follow hockey.

Banner all the way!
