IM a newbie to detecting, so I went to this veteran's park and in the middle of this soccer field I find a solid gold US ARMY recruiters ring with and emerald on it 5" down. My first good find.....my wife has been talking crap to me since I got a detector saying " your never gonna find anything good", well I showed her lol.

Nice! Depending on what it written on the ring, you might be able to find the one who lost it. The rewards in doing so may be more than you can imagine.

Yeah I was hoping that there was some info on who's ring it was but, no name or anything is marked on the ring.

Great find. I like returning items if I can, but am not too upset if they are not marked either. I am hunting for treasure after all.

Happy Hunting and hope you find many more good items.

returns are really awesome, sometimes they actually change lives... you will have a friend for life that you never knew before. but not everything can be returned, it is what it is. congrats on the beautiful ring

no telling the service the man has done for our country as so many have done. I was asked to help find the service ring of a 94 year old WW2 man, I searched hard for several days with my detector, going over everything and everywhere he had been. two weeks later he found it in a drawer, it had slid off when he had reached in to get something. I had wanted to find it so badly, he had shared about fighting the Japanese, about losing friends etc. I did not serve during a war time myself but a lot of my family had and I will always have the utmost respect for any and all of our Vets or current military men and women.

No doubt I never served in the military but know many who have.......they give the ultimate sacrifice to ensure our freedom .......I would really like to find the person who this ring belongs too. I even put up flyers at the park I found it at.

Greeky..nice find !!..and kudos for trying to locate the owner..I have had the pleasure of finding and returning rings to the owners and it was definitely more rewarding than the initial find...btw-what signal did the gold ring give you on the AT Pro? The rings I have found were platinum, silver, titanium or a mix of each, but never any solid gold finds yet. Thanks in advance for the info!...ddf
