[tommyboy72]

I was detecting a local county fairground that is iver 150 years old, and got a mixed nickel/silver coin signal I decided to dig it and cut a nice big plug when I flipped it and removed the loose dirt this is what I saw!!!! Instant heart attack!!!! I'm not going to reveal what it is just yet. I want to leave you guys in suspense for a day or so!!!! LOL!!!! I'm not saying it's good and I'm not saying it's junk. One of my My detecting buddies (Corinth1812) was there when I dug this and I'm so glad i had a witness!!!

feel free to venture a guess. I will post a pic of the find Sunday Morning. p.s. it's not a pulltab and it is not any kind of screwcap/bottlecap and it is not junk either!!

Is that an "H" or "JC"?..........if it is "JC" it could be over 2000 yrs. old!

Tommyboy72 I live a mile away from the OLDEST CONTINUOUSLY RUNNING COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS in the WHOLE U.S. (that's United States), which is the Jefferson County Fairgrounds in Watertown NY, ca1840. Google it. Having found a couple old nails and bottle caps plus over 50 silver coins including seated crap, and things like two centers, silver Canadian fishscales, large cents, and gold rings, I can honestly say that erlkjh da'adj adpodp apddi apoeopoi! I dfjlklksdj lfjllllt;tlr;;; Keep up the good work, I bet you dont beat that one soon. Best of luck!.

Very cool find no matter what. The design looks early 1900's a keeper to show off for sure.

Very nice find - would love to see a pic of that ring cleaned up. That ring is probably rarer than a gold coin.

Kudos for you to try to liven up the forum....need more entertaining posts liek this, most are fairly straight foreward (which I am guilty more than most of being a man of few words) but it warms my heart to see some fun!! Karma will reward you with the next ring Good luck and Happy Hunting
