First Gold of the Year!

[oldmxrat]

I was inspired by another member's success hunting along a walking path, so I went looking for a popular hiking path. I found one with a great view at the top of a high hill. I was finding plenty of clad and pull tabs. When I neared the top I noticed what looked like an old path up from another direction, from what looked like an old road bed.
I started noticing older trash immediately. Ended up with 3 wheat cents, a 1946 peso made into a button and a little 14k gold ring.

Sorry about the dark pics, I need to get a light booth.
