All of these finds have come from the same 40+ acre site ... the location of an old mineral spring resort hotel that burned in 1925.

It all started on January 25 with this mind-blowing Draped Bust dime!

Here's the video from that day:

Then, on February 5, I dug this monster 14.1 gram 18k gold ring from around 1885-1910. It contains just over 1/3 ounce of pure gold!

I really enjoyed the vids, that gold ring is mind blowing. I'll bet that not to many people could afford a ring like that. To bad you are unable to ID it's owner, they might be famous. Keep up the great vids, I'll be watching them. HH
