It has been quit some time since being here on the forum, been mostly working my A_ _ off no time to MD, been working on this job between Grass Valley and Auburn, multiple concrete pours, we had load of A/B gravel delivered last week, Yesterday we did our third pour there and when finished pouring we started to get things ready for our last pour on this job, while moving some gravel into one of the areas by shovel I looked down and there was this ring, looked in side the band and saw 10 k, not sure on the I K S stands for, it has 7 diamonds on it and I thought well with it being only 10 k probably not real diamonds, put it to my diamond tester and low and behold they are real. Love these eyeball finds.

wow, great find.
 

You are one lucky guy to spot that! Congratulations!
 

You found this in a load of gravel? Great reward for keeping your eyes open!
 

When you swing a coil, you notice many other things on the ground
that the everyday, run of the mill person doesn't. Nice find...congrats.
Gold Nuggets :hello:
 

Great Stuff!!..Man I swear Ive found some Great Stuff just looking down
 

IKS is the designer of the ring.
 

Sweet, they are coming out of the ground already set in gold... dont get any better than that!!
 

Found some info on the IKS Makers Hallmark

On Tuesday, May 11, 2010, a U.S. federal trademark registration was filed for IKS by Sandeep Diamond Corporation, New York, NY 10017. The USPTO has given the IKS trademark serial number of 85034999. The current federal status of this trademark filing is REGISTERED. The correspondent listed for IKS is JOHN R. MUGNO of LAW OFFICES OF JOHN R. MUGNO, 350 BROADWAY FL 10, NEW YORK, NY 10013-3911 . The IKS trademark is filed in the category of Jewelery Products . The description provided to the USPTO for IKS is DIAMONDS AND JEWELRY CONTAINING DIAMONDS, NAMELY, BRACELETS, RINGS, EARRINGS, NECKLACES AND PENDANTS.

Not sure how long the mark was on rings prior to the Trademark Registration
 

great find. congrats!
 

Way to go! Always keep an eye open, EVEN while detecting! :)

Actually, I would think the 10k would be even more an indicator that the diamonds are real. Lots of ring makers use 10kt because it is harder than 14kt. So, the diamond settings might stay better over time.

Good eye!

HH!
 

Very pretty ring! It beckons you to put your coil to the soil and discover more surprises! Maybe you could take one day off to detect! HH Andi
 

Great find! Makes the day so much better! Bet you worked the rest of the day with a smirk on your face! :D
