1916 Barber Quarter~Diamond Ring~Sterling spoon

RONC(OR) · Sep 5, 2009

Hi All
Went on a short hunt with Richard in between the rain so nice to see some First I found the spoon I tested it it is sterling and weighs 8.6 grams . Then I found the Barber it was in the hard pack gravel and did not sound all that good I thought it might have been a wheat boy was I surprised I did hit it with my digger on the reverse glad its not a key date . then I got a 12-11 and thought nickel and the ring pop out. the diamonds do test good but don't think they amount to much 10k 4.2 grams also found 1 wheat. thx for looking HH RonC :icon_pirat:

Really great finds Ron! That ring must have been a real surprise! It is great. I've only found two gold rings with my E-Trac so far, and the reason I dug them is that they rang in at 12-41/42. One was my own 18K wedding band that I had lost 4 months earlier, and the other turned out to be a 24K ring.
