~~ TRI STATE M.D.C. RECOVERS GOLD & DIAMONDS!!!~~~

This ring was lost in july of last year along a country road, what are the odds of finding something like that?

Well,, pretty good,, about 10 members tailgated to the location,,around 8-10 miles out in the country northwest of ,

Mt. vernon il ,,,darkness was setting in when we all lined up on the side of the road and began our hunt,, sorting through,

trash and beer cans ,, after only 15 min. one of our members sang out ,,HEAR IT IS!!! right beside the road at the edge of the grass and,

gravel!!! ,,, Justin(digger62918)was the lucky finder of the ring!!!,, as you can tell from the picture she was a happy camper!!!

Her and her husband was greatfull to get back the white gold and diamond filled ring that were sure was very expensive!!

There was a $50.00 Reward payed to the club which was very nice of them to do!!!,,thanks guys,,,

That fifty bucks will go along way to help fund our big hunt coming up this fall on the last weekend of sept.,

so if you are in the area please try to make our annual hunt,, and give us some support!!!,,, for info on the hunt, give digger62918 or me,, a p.m.




Thanks for looking

arthur

What, did she toss it out the car window while having a spat?? LOL... HOW does one lose a big ring like that alongside the road?? Maybe I need to start hunting along major state highways?
Good job, glad they got her ring back!

Hey Arthur thanks for taking the time to post it on here. After I found the ring I didn't really take a good look at it before I handed it over. I didn't realize it had so many diamonds!
