Great find. I've done that before too. Excitement can do that to you sometimes. You wanna grab it right away. I remember doing it with a silver dime in a plowed field that was sitting on the surface and had been plowed up. I was upset I forgot to get an in-situ pic of it first.
Meh [emoji2371]. Everyone has done that at one time or another and you aren’t likely to forget the feeling of finding it anytime soon, with or without the picture. That’s the only thing that matters so congratulations on a beauty ring.

LoL when I find a ring I usually just grab it thinking "another GD pull tab" and only discover its a ring after its in my hand. But every time I find a pull tab I'm like an archaeologist with a powder brush and dental pic.
super find. Yes the first good gold ring like yours does catch you by surprise. Yes that is what we are all looking for, but plug after plug somehow makes us think we will never get one.
