Big Gold, half dime and thimble surprise.

[Dirty Digger Doug]

Went out yesterday with the wife and my son. We took the hour drive to go to the money field. First thing I found was a half dime. Yes, a Rosie cut in half. A clean cut, not by lawn mower. Then I pulled a thimble, gold colored. I gave it a squirt and light brushing and the gold color faded. It was aluminum. I began to pull the dirt out of the inside when an oyster she'll button popped out. To cool. Like cracker Jack's with a prize inside. After lunch lunch I pulled a beautiful 10k, 6.5g gold ring. What a way to cap off a great day detecting with the family. My son got a boy scout kerchif slide and a bunch of clad. My wife got a bunch of clad.

Beautiful ring!

Very nice ! I second jewelerguy's dating of 1930's for the ring - someone wore that ring for many years !

That’s a great ring!

Unfortunately your half dime is the worst variety
