Went to a couple parks and hit the tot lots after dropping sister-in-law off at the bus for her trip back home after a weeks visit, found quite a bit of clad and two jewelry items and other odds and ends, I tossed all the junk. I save the tabs for a local Childrens hospital and the washers end up in my coffee can full of nuts& bolts.I put the ring on my ring models hand and she can't get it off so I guess it's hers,:BangHead: that happens a lot.:laughing7:10K w/stones haven't checked yet if real, 100_6093.JPG pretty sure they are diamonds.And it was the second to last target almost an, on the way back to the car ring . 100_6094.JPG 100_6097.JPG 100_6096.JPG 100_6095.JPG 100_6069.JPG My ring model(wife) goes wandering taking pictures, these guys said take ours. 100_6065.JPG even had one photo bomb it's buddy:laughing7:

I have found 3 gold rings that look exactly like that.
These are a popular style of wedding rings.
All three of mine had 3 diamonds also, all tested real and yours will too.
CongratZ!

Yeah I love that picture my wife didn't know it happened until we looked at them on the computer.The ring was super close to a rock climbing wall with rebar in it, it was between the iron signals and a lot of the clad was up tight to pipes and such. In Tot lots I use my sniper coil to get up close for what the bigger coils miss.

That's a great find. Gold is choice, and it looks like you made somebody with a hand a very happy person with it.

Roeding has always treated me well. Looks like she did you good too!

The zoo puts so many people through there it always replenishes quickly. I know a lot of people pound that park but it always gives up the goodies.And you can still find oldies if you put in the time I have friends that pull silver out of there often.

It is getting a bit more difficult these days, but you are absolutely correct. I found a merc and buffalo nickel out there just a couple of weeks ago. My jewelry finds are minimal though...congrats on that ring!
