Found this 14kt white gold ring in old part of evansville, 15 diamonds, the center stone is 1/4kt, the jeweler told me the stones are very clear and by the cut, the stones were cut more than 100 years ago, the setting is called a "princess" setting, from the side it looks like a crown, the setting itself is from the 1920's.........
This is my best ever. Found Aug 1 07, Men's platinum wedding band with 100 diamonds, 50 on each side.
made by designer Michael Bogosian. retail over 10K.
I called the designer to return to the owner. Turns out it is his sons. Got as a graduation present. As a reward for returning it the designer is making me an exact copy in my size.
Will post a pic when I get it, Should be in Nov.

Well this is just my first year of detecting with my ACE 250 and this is the only gold ring I found. Unfortunately it has cz's. Still a pretty ring and i get complements every time I wear it!
This one was found Dec 26th, 2005, belated Christmas present !!! Found in elementary school playground under the swing, 4 inches down in the wood chips.
My best ring find was a class ring from the class of '44. It was returned to it's owner after being lost for 48 yrs. Since then I have returned 2 more class rings.
These are some pix of my Sept-Oct. finds this year. I couldn't find pix of my other gold finds for this year (total 105) but my best was a .82 diamond ring(center stone) total ct was 1.75
14K with 60 diamonds... around 1.2 carats. Gotta love this hobby I'd show the rest but I cashed in my gold last month all 3.5 oz of rings / chains, etc. Came out to 1.5 ounce of pure gold. Replaced the lost diamond in my wife's engagement ring. I can hunt whenever I want now
