Hi guys
I was just passing by the area where I've found a lot of Byzantine stuff. I noticed someone was building a new road there. So I decided to stop and talk with the owner. It was very muddy on the surroundings so I could check only the soil on both sides of the road. The soil on both sides of the new road was very rich with pottery pieces.
A lot of small and big nails came out.
While the surface of the new road was 50 cm deep and untouched soil I was not expecting to find anything so I was looking only the sides of it. But the unexpected happened. Right on that clean surface I dug this beautiful ring. I'm sure it felt from the side of the road because of the heavy rains.
Silver and Red Ambra. That was a great find for a quick hunt.

Intact stone and ring is a banner find. Easy decision. Unbelievable find Vince. Wowsers!
 

I'll go with the banner as well. That thing is really exceptional.
 

If that ring could talk I could only imagine the amazing stories it could tell.

Thanks buddy. It was pure luck. I parked the car and began walking to the area where they are building the road. When I was almost there I realised that I didn't have the spade with me. :laughing7: First I thought to go ahead and just have a look but than I decided to turn back and get the spade. Thanks for the vote:thumbsup:

Love to see history saved, too many times it is negligently or intentionally destroyed. Marvalous save!
