UPDATE! The 1977 Conestoga High School Class ring that Josh dug yesterday has a great ending! With the help of T-net user cntrydncr, we were able to locate the owner and Josh just got off the phone with him! He was ecstatic to hear that the ring had been found and believes he lost it sometime in the mid 80's.. very cool! Anyway, Josh will be meeting with the gentleman tomorrow afternoon and looks forward to returning it and snapping a couple photos with him :headbang:

Hi T-net! Returned from my trip to Missouri on Tuesday and have been itching to dig up some VA dirt :laughing7: Today was awesome! Without a doubt, one of the best days for Josh aka {Sentinel} and I :thumbsup: First, Josh scored his first seated dime today, so check out the video.. You can hear the "seated excitement" in his voice :headbang: :headbang: HH! Jeff ... Josh would like to add a couple lines

What's up guys. Yes as Jeff said, we had a another great day and I dug my FIRST Seated Dime :headbang: :wink:
I've dug Seated Quarters, halves... but never a dime... NOW, I can wipe that off! :wink: We included the video below to show you our finds right after we dug them in the field. Enjoy: :wink:



On to the finds-

Hey CntryDncr, I dug the class ring and it was actually the very first signal that I dug. Why do you say you think you've found the owner? There's only initials and I haven't taken the time just yet to look into it as I've been out diggin all day today but if you have any info as to who it might be I'd be more than interested hearin it!
