Went out for a couple of hours after work today to huge nearby park. I hunted around the base of some big trees but got a lot of trash so moved on to the soccer field but after a couple of minutes I noticed a tot-lot up the path a couple hundred yards minus the tots so I decided to hit it up.

I dug every signal so I got my share of nails, wire, thumb tacks, paper clips and foil but I also managed to find a few coins and a ring. I know nothing about jewelry but my first thought was that came from a gumball machine. :dontknow: The metal looks cheap and has some tiny specks of rust on it but my girlfriend thinks the stone looks real. Real what? :dontknow: I walk past a Jewelry store almost every day so I'll just stop in and ask just to satisfy my curiosity.

*The old handle was found just ouside of the tot-lot in the picnic area.

Nothing too exciting buy hey, even if it is from a gumball machine, it's still my first ring!

Okay, I just got back from the jeweler who I asked about the ring and he said..

"That's amethyst, throw it right back where you found it" :tongue3:
