Nice!!! Congrats!!! If You can’t find the other half, acid tests aren’t that expensive! Or a Jeweler usually will test it for free!
 

Great finds - well done ! :occasion14:
 

Looks like a good day. Nice post and pics. 👍
 

the other half has to be there somewhere
 

Sure looks like a productive day of detecting. Congrats on the ring an he LC. I love seeing the largies!
