Friday the 13th didn't scare me none.... Dang, I couldn't believe it!

I went back to the swimming area/fishing hole where I had pretty good luck last year. I'm trying to hit it hard before the water is raised to the summer level again. I was there about for about an hour wearing out the pull tabs and sinkers with the occasional clad coin when I got a good nickel signal and out rolled this.

Well, I was doing the happy dance because that was my second engagement ring of the week. I got to thinking how familiar that ring looked but I couldn't verify that until I got home. Here's a pic of the wedding ring I found last year at that spot.

DANG, I found the matching ring one year later.

I also found a nice little Winchester pocket knife with the large blade open. With it being Friday the 13th, I closed the blade anyway, lol... I'll have to give it a good cleaning but it's in great shape.

I was at another place I had not hunted before beside the lake and found a very old trash dump with lots of broken crock pieces, old hand made bricks, green and pink glass, mason jar lids and rusty iron everywhere. I did manage to find one neat thing, this old bracelet face. It has the initials J H on it in fancy letters.

I had a very good day and had lots of fun. Thanks for looking and have a great night.

Super find :thumbsup: Unbelievable to find the mate a year later, wow that's really something. I kinda feel sorry for the lady who lost her whole set, just maybe she tossed em...you never know about some of the things we find, but all I can say you're some lucky guy. :)

I'm writing myself a note. "nickel signal could mean serious bling".
Congrats!

Great find. I guess if she lost her wedding band she had to lose her diamond first. what a great find and story-a year apart.

Thanks for all of the replies. I was standing there in the mud looking at that ring and I sort of got the feeling that I had been there and done that before. Then I remembered that wedding band I found there last year a little ways down from there. I had to wait till I got home to compare them and the happy dance started all over again. Happy hunting you all.
