Been spending most of my time on a site near my house. I hae spent 100's of hours detecting and have removed nearly all of the pulltabs and junk. Iv'e found a couple of old coins one being a 1719-1724 British Colonial King George 1st half penny. Tons of Colonial buttons, many "Dandy" ones. Colonial spoon, buckles etc... Each different area gives up clusters of artifacts from different time periods ranging from colonial-present.
Today I found this ring. I had no idea what it was, but figured it had to be a bit old. I posted it on "what is it" and learned that it is an early Air Corps ring. The ring is very small, can't even get it on my pinky finger, so I suspect it was lost by a female Air Corp.
After learning about what the sybols on the ring stand for, the find has a new meaning. It's amazing how by learning the history of an artifact changes the meaning and value of it.
Thanks for looking.
