Well I know why I dont find Gold now (knew all along) cause I dont dig every pop top sig., and this one was def a broken pop top sig. Well I dug some anyway cause I knew I was in the right place. How?, because the ring owner told me so, and she was pretty excited to get it back, (more than me but I was def excited to see it turn up in the scoop) She found the treasurenet sight (go to Texas in the by state forum) and requested assistance, well I was close, and we finally got together and found it in about a hour.
Shed been trying for 3 weeks (and was pretty sunburned to show for it). It was her grandmothers band and her moms diamond so losing it was not a option for her (shed been digging ,borrowed a detector and even had another detecorist come out and search, Very persistant young gal). Thanks for lookin It was a very fun adventure.
T.C.

Guys this man is definately my hero!!!!!!!I couldnt be happier when I seen the gleam of that diamond!! It means so much to me, and I bawled for 2 weeks straight! This has been such a wonderful day for me.

Having people coming out and looking definately has my dh looking for a detector now!!! TC thanks so much for coming out! (I promise I wont make you come out a second time to come out and look for it, because I WILL take it off next time we go swimming!!!!!)

Thank you everyone involved!!!!!!!!This group of folks are so nice, I think the dh and I might get into this hobby as well!!!!!

Note-i like the setting, its simple and I havent ever seen another one like it! now the worth on this ring I couldnt tell ya if you had to put a dollar amount, but for me its priceless! (its 1/2 ct diamond and .992 oz's of gold)

OUTSTANDING JOB - You are a definitely a true Texas Hero and I second the nomination for Treasurenet Member of the Month - if there isn't such a thing, maybe there should be.
You make the rest of us Texans very proud.

It's stories like this that makes one feel good all over. TC, you're a winner in my book!! winner.gif

Dazlin, I felt for you when I first read your "help" post, I'm so happy that TC found your ring.
It's a beautiful ring that holds a lot of sentimental value. I would had be devastated too. Thank heaven for folks like TC.

Just look around this forum and see all the awesome rings that has been lost & found. Incredible, huh? Now, you and hubby get a MD and head to the beach to see what you can find...but leave your ring at home. ;D ;D

;) RR
