Finally gold #2 for 2015. 1959 Class ring!

[swolfe]

I went out to an old elementary school's soccer field for father's day and found a class ring today! It's a 1959 Cedarburg High School class ring. Cedarburg is in Wisconsin and I'm in Illinois, that should make for an easier ring return! I also found a titanium dog tag pendant that seems to have a small diamond in it.

I found these with (what else?) a Garrett AT PRO. The ring was coming in at a 55-57 like a square tab.

Cedarburg library should have all the year books from way back - good luck on your search. If you can find the owner, no better feeling than that return.

UPDATE!

I have found an old yearbook online from this highschool from 1957. Only one listed sophmore has the correct initials! I have sent massages to this person and some family members on facebook! Yep, she's on facebook!!! This is super exciting!
