Found today at an old swimming hole beach. Ring is from a prep school in New Rochelle, NY. Has a man's name and date, June 14th inside. Already got a response from the school alumnae association. They will try to find the owner.
Amazing day!!!

If he's still kicking, he'll be ready to retire at 62 1/2. I'll bet he would be mighty happy to see that old ring!

Nice find and nice post, glad to see you're trying to get it back.... ?;D

That's a great find, EW. I found a very nice gold man's wedding ring once but never a class ring.

Good luck finding the owner. I'm sure he would be pleased to get it back after so long.

Very nice find! The pleasure it would bring if you can return it would surpass the gold ring find, good luck finding the owner! HH, Mike

Outstanding find of course ... you are still my MD'ing hero! But instead of returning it to the owner why don't we pawn it and use the $$ for our beer at the Super Bowl Party!!??

OK....ya'll know I'm kidding....but EarthWorks....describe to everyone the "details" of the find...and how your persistence and patience actually paid off!!

I was there for this find and there were pull tabls everywhere and about 1/2 hour before he found it he said "you have to dig all the pull tabs or you will never get the gold." And the rest is history...

Although a great big 49 carat diamond would be a find of finds.......a class ring find would be so cool especially one with more years on it than myself and I'm not a youngster anymore, ya know. There are so many more steps you can take it by trying to locate the owner and such.......great find, I am so envious.......keep on swinging......gregd573
