Went back to the park where I found the Rosie. I decided to hit a wide open area that looks like it is used for soccer or football. I found some clad from the 60's but no silver. Even a 1954 nickel. Then the Etrac hits with a 12-47 12-48. I dig down about 4-5 inches and out it pops. At first I thought I had dug a aluminum screw cap. Then I realize it's a silver ring. I am not sure what the stone is (I think Agate). Clear with black specks.

Says Sterling on the inside with a hallmark. Looks like an older ring to me.

That's a nice ring, and the stone is agate. My first silver ring was big honker similar to yours, even the same agate stone.
 

Wow, That's a NIce Big Silver!!
 

Are you using a custom setting

I use Bill S. trashy park program. It has a small nickel notch and hits on zinc, clad dimes, copper and silver. Discs out iron, foil, some pulltabs, and most gold.

I'll have to look that one up. If I can't find it I may need you to send me a pic
 

Sweet find I love finding rings my turn next Thanks for the post!!!!!
 

That trashy park program is a killer. It is all I use except sometimes open it wide up with an iffy signal. Nice ring

The ring is beautiful--looks like Montana Moss Agate to me, which correlates with your location. Congrats. -Lisa
