First I want to say nothing good, was hitting a yard of a friend and was doing good on the clad, then hit a kids ring well I was happy to find something different. I let the son of the owner have it, the next find was in sliver range another ring, not sure if it is junk but hey it was another ring. The next hit was under a bush and was 84 to my surprise it was another ring, I couldn't believe it. Here's some pic of the 2 I kept and some finds from a hold house site a hit the other day. Good luck and good hunting!!!!!

Nice haul, certainly looks silver, any indication on the inside like a hallmark? I like that thing w/ a heart on it...what is it?
 

3 rings in a row??? Man, I think I have found 3 in the last year! For some reason they seem to elude me cuz I know others find 'em. WTG and I hope your next one is silver or dare I say GOLD! HH
 

WTG! I like finding rings!
 

Nice score on the rings!

I would real like to find a nice gold ring, I have found only 2 gold rings so I am do. Thanks for looking and Good Hunting.
 

Like Mike said, I like digging rings. I have never dug a solid gold tho, in a couple years of digging.
 

The Heart buckle you found is a CIVIL WAR HORSE'S HEART-SHAPED HARNESS BUCKLE SHIELD....ACCORDING TO
HOWARD R. CROUCH'S HORSE EQUIPMENT OF THE CIVIL WAR ERA, PAGE 168...THESE
ITEMS PROTECTED THE HAIR OF THE HORSE'S TAIL FROM BEING PULLED OUT OF THE
BUCKLE TONGUES. THE HEART MOTIF WAS VERY POPULAR.
I found one last year and researched it. Great find!
Congrats on the rings too!
