There you go - I'd like to see a couple clear shots of it - I'm thinking it could be cleaned up and put right fairly easily , Nice.

For a first ring its a very nice one, I have found many old copper rings before ever finding a golden one let alone a class ring, so maybe you have two first in one there ! One of the first rings that I found was in behind an older church was rather large , found out that they are commonly called a "Biker" ring.

Wow, that is a very nice ring, let alone a first ring. My first several rings were junkers. I have found a few silver rings this year but didn't hit my first gold until almost a year of detecting.

Nice work.

Was it a Mexican biker ring? chief, skull, or horse?

And I wasn't hatched yet,lol! Thanks for all the nice replies ya'll. I'm thinking of taking it to a jeweler friend to see if he can at least try and straighten it out a bit.
