Nice find

maybe the owner will run an ad in lost and found so you can return it... or maybe they won't.

Thanks for sharing with us such a nice ring

Re: ring in found without digging!!

Sweet find amigo ;D The going rate for appraisals @ Columbus Ohio is $35-$50 depends on the store. A reputable jeweler should be able to tell you if the diamonds are real or not at no charge. If you have the time or energy try looking in bar and or club parking lots early Sat and Sun am . It's a good place to find some coins and an occasional ring. Let us know what happens.
