A gold ring for the Silver uMax

[Ray in CA]

I got a chance to do a quick hunt at the park just down the street from my house. The city had recently replaced the bark in the playground so I wasn't too hopeful of finding anything great there. Nevertheless, I tried it out and 4 clad quarters later I hit this nice little 14k gold religious ring. It is so small it barely fits around the tip of my pinky finger. I've also attached a pic of what a beautiful day it is here in Banning (shot through the window of my Jeep Liberty). I'd like to go out detecting more today but I've got an old, dead peach tree that needs to come out of my back yard in preparation for planting a new lawn.

Man, I might have to put the moniker of King before your name Ray “King Ray of SoCal”. That’s a fantastic find and a beautiful photograph as well. Thanks for pumping us up. I'm ready for Sunday.

HH and thanks for sharing.

Wow! What a difference 130 miles makes! I was stationed in El Centro, CA when I was in the Navy. Never made it up to Banning and now I wish I had. Beautiful town, and nice find on the ring.

That ring is cool. But I gotta tell ya that second pic just knocked my socks off. I can not imagine what it would be to live there.

Thanks everyone!

Ant, I'm far from being the king of so. Cal. Maybe of Banning, perhaps, LOL. I think there are only a couple of other guys that detect here from time to time, and they're retired policemen who go all over the place.

muleskinner, I used to live in Reseda, right in the heart of the San Fernando Valley. I can't tell you what a breath of fresh air Banning is compared to the "Valley." It reminds me of rural Lodi where I used to live, but prettier because of the two huge mountains that we sit between. It's nice here, and a lot more affordable.

Nice ring, gold is gold. I do love finding rings and I keep my finds locked up so my kids dont play with them.

Just think, he didn't even need to find the spot to take the photo. All he has to do is step out of his front door and he will see the same thing to the left (San Gorgonio MT's.), center left (San Gorgonio Peak, tallest peek in SoCal), and to his right center is Mount San Jacinto (situatued in the Santa Rosa Mountain range), what a life.
