I found his ring while helping a friend set up as a T Pro actually didn't want to go hunting that day but I just went with him and that's what I found ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1446670970.959250.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1446670991.910177.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1446671010.926024.jpg

Nothing written inside I assume? It looks like junk jewelry to me. Keep at it and you'll get some!

The question would be...did the appraiser make you an offer? And why haven't you taken it, lol.

Dang some nice stones in that white gold there, wonder if the Rubies are synthetic or the real deal ? It sure looks good, bet your eyes about popped out when you first saw it :headbang:

Not saying the ring is junk, I have yet to find anything 18K here myself, best so far is 14K but the area I live in is "VERY BAD" for metal detecting in my opinion :laughing7:

I once had a Jewelry store tell me that my Lindsay star was a real sapphire even tho it was synthetic. If the Rubies are real I would think the value would be considerably higher than what that Jeweler offered, your wife is lucky to get that ring :notworthy: Hope that the ring fits well. Would look into insurance if its a 10,000 $ plus ring in reality.
