First gold

[Joe-Dirt]

Went some more public woods with my buddy Jeff and popped this beauty out. I thought it was a bottle cap at first, but it’s a 1943 St. John’s high school class ring. It’s only 10k but it’s better than the bottle cap I was expecting. Nice solid repeatable 63 in all metal with my AT max
I’m having a good week😬👍🏻🍀

Only 10k?? Ive found over 40+ gold rings and still havent hit a class ring yet. That's a hell of a find! Congrats!

10k is "industry standard" karat for class rings.

Great looking H.S. ring find my friend I've never found one before.
Sure would be nice if you could find the original owners family and return it to them... just a thought.

As a matter of fact I contacted the alumni director and asked him if he would check into it, the only initials on the band are “W.F.” If this kid was 18 when he graduated, he’d be 94. Coincidently, that’s the same year my dad graduated high school.

Kudos to you for at least making the effort to do the right thing here Bob.
After 76 years, it maybe difficult to locate the original owners family.
Let us know what happens... it would at least be worth an 'Honorable Mention' if you're able to return it.

This is a great find !! Are you looking for a relative to the ring ?

 

[mjb Mike]

Great find! Gold of any grade is awesome ... the master metal. I found a 10K class ring like that, not as old though, somewhat recent. I found the owner, talked to the father and sent it to the address provided. It was returned (she might have moved) and they never returned my calls so it's mine now ... lol. Congratz!!
