I went out to an old scout camp that Seeker and I have hit before today. John couldn't make it he was a bit under the weather ;D by the way gratz on the first place in bowling league. was a bit muddy back there but did find 10 wheats a buffalo nickle and a clad dime. also a religious medal and a scout button. finally I found 2 gold rings about 8 feet apart in the middle of nowwhere. the one is just a cheap plated one with an arrow on it so probably was a scouts. the other is my first class ring. 1924 cant read the school name too worn but has WSH engraved on the inside.

Re: another first today

Glad to see that you got out without the KingPin. I heard he had a touch of the "flu". You should have called him incessantly like he does to you. ;)

Nice stuff...I especially like the class ring. :)
 

Wow, Congrats on the Gold.

That Class ring looks Cool.
 

Really nice finds, especially the ring!!

Tim,

Congrats on the gold ring and all the coins. I spent 4 hrs out yesterday and only found two wheaties!

1924, that would probably make the person who lost the ring ( or to whom it belonged to originally ) about 100 yrs old.(if a college ring add another 4-6 yrs), if this person was still alive.
Maybe it was passed down to a son or grandson? By the looks of the wear, I'd guess it was worn for at least 25-30 yrs, maybe more. That would make it lost sometime in the 50's or 60's. Just a guess, that's the fun part of finding things, the mystery!!

HH,
Smartin
