First hunt of the year yields GOLD & DIAMONDS!! APPRAISAL UPDATE

APPRAISAL UPDATE:
I took this ring to a jeweler. These are diamonds, not CZ. He said it is worth about $200.

First hunt of the year yields GOLD & DIAMONDS
First Gold Post Of 2008?

About 10 min. into my first hunt of the year I pulled this beauty out. Marked .585 (14KT gold) with 2 rows of 5 diamonds. Uh, that would be 15 DIAMONDS. I will take it in Friday for an appraisal. I was hunting the grass area of a park. I also found a 1952 Wheat and the regular clad. The last day of the year ended with 2 silver rings, the first day of the year started with gold, diamonds and a wheatie. It doesn’t get any better than that. I hope that sets the tone for this years hunt. Oh, BTW, it was 75 degrees here in beautiful Cali today.
