Well its 3 rings in 1 week for me I didnt find that many all last year this one is special. I took the ring to a jeweler today he priced it at over $2,000.00 I almost passed out He looked at me and said are you ok lol lol Also 14 IH pennies , 1876 -CC seated dime, 1854 seated quarter, a colonial silver spoon, a sterling silver skull necklace, a colonial buckle, another old weight and misc. artifacts.
14.54 in clad and 32 wheaties.
What a pain it is cleaning this stuff all the silver and gold is coming out of the river black. my fingers stink like rotten eggs cleaning the stuff off
