Found the biggest ring I have ever found today and it's Silver & Gold ! #10

Oh ya !!!! Got this morning and hunted a school that I had forgotten about over the years . Eagleforce , Ryan , found the school and we meet up . After a good two hours we only had clad :BangHead: . Then about 15 feet off the black top I had a +86 at 6 inches . Now on the MXT PRO an +86 is almost always a quarter , almost always :hello2: . I dug down and saw a monster silver ring on it's side ! I pulled it out and could believe the size of it ! It is sterling with 10k gold and weighs 17.50 grams :headbang:! It is the 2nd heaviest ring I have ever found and the largest in size , a size 13 :icon_thumright: . Looks to be Celtic and has a small green stone in the middle , maybe an emerald ? That made my hunt ! The other cool old item found is a half dollar sized medal that says National Taiwan University and has a date of 1928 . Anyone have info on it ? Total clad for 3 hours was $13.05 .

I just took a closer look at that ring. It's definitely impressive and definitely HUGE.

I saw a few on Ebay used for around 135 bucks. That's a pretty high resale value. Gotta' love digging up silver and gold....

I haven't that area since the 1990's . Never found much back then . Back in the 40's a bunch of houses use to be there .
