Eureka!

Out playing my my new (used) XLT...first hole I dug was a bottle cap, 2nd hole was a 1935 Washington Quarter, 3rd hole was a beautiful 10K gold class ring from Aquinas College dated 1929! Didn't find squat after that...not that I'm complaining. Don't think I'll be finding the owner of this one, considering they're probably 100 years old now.

Not to be out done, hunting partner grabbed a 1937 Walker too...amazing considering it was in a park that should have been obviously hunted out. Maybe it was TOO obvious, everyone just assumed the place was hunted out?

Love them "Hunted out" sites. Don't find much, but what we find makes the effort worthwhile. Nice coins and fine looking ring...

GReat finds!!!

Do some research on the ring if you can and try to return it to the family. I found one almost as old and returnd it to the daughter, and it meant more to her than I could have imagined.
Here is what it meant to them...bottom post
