2 GOLD Rings in the same Hole!!! -UPDATED

CRUSADER · May 30, 2009

Wow it was hot today.

Started in a cow field with no luck, moved to a nearby game strip but we had done this already & left only a couple of plain buttons.
Then I noticed a wide tractor track that seemed worth going down in the next field. Half way down I noticed several bare patches in the rape crop, left by the Archie's trenches. So I did all these areas & got a few things:
1 Scrappy
Nice Victorian Royal Navy Button
Cut Shortcross Hammered
Medieval Sword Chape
Broken Roman Brooch with some enamel
Lead Cloth Seal.

I forgot my water so needed to get home, before I left I thought I would try the Bungalow garden which is currently empty as no-ones renting it at the moment. (after sticking my head in the horse watering trough to cool down, I continued to the garden) I don't normally do many gardens, but as I entered I thought I may just get a ring, not knowing I would dig two in the same hole!
Both only 9 Carat & dating from 1945.

Nice finish to the day. I think they may belong to the owners Dad, as he used to live there, if so I will happily return them both.

CRUSADER lin Today I took the rings & other bits & bobs to show the farmer. I gave the two rings for her to check with her Dad if they were once his. If not I told her to keep them anyway said:
thats nothing compared to some of the other stuff you've handed over
