OK folk's I have to share this. A person I know has a friend who lost her ring
while at a tot lot he knew I metal detect so he called me this morning.
I had other plans but I went ahead and got out there before anyone else may find it.
After 40 min's I had found a ring that looks like it may be it as was described to me
white gold diamonds all the way around it that is what I found. It is not too dirty but
I am cleaning it right now some and taking some pic's and will post. I have already
called to let him know I found a ring as he described to me.

Even if all you get is a "thank you".........you did good~~!!!! Personally,
I wouldn't ask for compensation, but, I would
graciously accept anything offered! ;D

Well, I am meeting her and my friend today for lunch to return the ring to her. My friend tells me she is an older lady and the ring was given to her by her late husband a long time ago so it means alot to her. He also has said she is very thankful but not to expect anything from her she is not rich at all I do not expect anything nor will ask for anything just her being happy to have it back is enough although this is one heck of a ring I have no clue of it's value but it's got to be a few thousand at least but that does not matter. She lost it while at the tot lot with grandkids last Saturday. I will see if I can get a pic of her when I return the ring at lunch today.

Was at Wal-Mart getting some things and ran into the lady who I found the ring for she was with her grandkids and daughter the ones she was with when she lost the ring. Oh man did not think I was gonna get out of there she was so happy and introduced me to her daughter and the kid's. She was wearing the ring as well. I was pleased very happy I was able to have made her so happy.
