Well this morning i was wasting some time and decied to hunt one of my families old properties for a bit. Came up with my Great-Great Uncles high school class ring from 1940! I wis I had my photo gear but all I have is some cell pics of the find. You should have seen his face when it surfaced! He is well into his 80's and that made his day. The ring is hugs and solid 14k! Thanks for looking HH

Re: Gold 1940 Class ring found and returned! - Great story.

It is always great to return a prized item to someone, but has to be even better when you know them. Great save.
