update: thanks for all the comments for these finds, ive been looking at them all day, this site was settled as early as 1712 so it could have been buried then or a later time, but i will not scrap, separate, or sell, in case anybody was wandering......Just went to a new field where a early 1900s house was and pulled a silver half and Rosie. Then I get a deep faint target and over a foot deep I get this silver plated case. And 4 gold rings inside! They tested at least 10k except one is 18k. Holy crap, I'm still out here in the field going at it, but had to post this. 1 has a date of 1730 and another has a date of 1732. Could they be this old? Will get more pics when I get home

Some more pics real quick, looks like the tin they were in is silver! 1 ring says nothing, 1 says g p g 22 Jan 1732 on inside, 1 says hearts united live contented on inside, and last one says George king obe 4 oct 1730

There's a marking on the tin they were in, see pic

I'm still trying to find a great depression cache of gold too. Very nice find.
 

That is an incredible and truly rare find.
I'm going BANNER on this one.
 

Hi; I Vote BANNER. Dying to see the pictures. REMEMBER to take pics of ALL sides of each item so We here can DROOL and help date & ID stuff ok. AWESOME. PEACE:RONB :headbang:
 

Wow!! Looking forward to more pics. Please don't be like that message in the bottle thread and disappear before more pics are shown. Anxiously awaiting more!

Banner for sure, That would be the find of a lifetime for me.
 

Awesome, awesome, awesome find! Congrats on the find and hope you get a Banner! Banner vote will follow.

Very nice find!

I'm a little confused because if the 10K markings are also the 1700s dated ones, then it doesn't make sense to me.
 

That is an amazing find! Looking forward to the cleaned up pics and close ups of the markings.
 

I love it! That has to be near the top of the top for rarity of finds... 4 gold rings in one hole! That's like an ace in golf!

well done!
