My best day for gold!

[BeepingN'Digging]

My best day for gold! A beautiful University of Notre Dame class ring dated 1957 and marked 10k. A short distance away, a 14k wedding band dated 10-8-60. Both found in a local park. The class ring rang up just like a dime, and the wedding band was a solid 80 on the Deus II.

Huge congrats !! Two very nice hunks of gold. Notre Dame ring is top shelf of class rings. The person that lost it was probably born around 1934 , 1935 or earlier. Thanks for posting. CHEERS !!

Been around for 6 yrs come the long weekend coming up.

Congrats on the double gold, does the wedding ring have a date inscribed on the inner band?

Nothing better than unearthing some gold. Well done.

It's inscribed 10-8-60, visible in the picture. It also has initials inscribed, but they're fairly worn and in a fancy script I haven't been able to make out yet.

Thanks-I was on the phone screen when I viewed it first.
Now on the desk top I can see it clearly.
62 yrs ago now-they'd be getting up there in age if still around.

2 older gold out of a park-really shows that folks have missed them or thought they were trash.

Gold is just so relatively uncommon, 2 in one day, not at a beach, is incredible- Congrats!

Yes! I'm thoroughly ecstatic over these finds. About 7 years of detecting, and these make only about 10 total for gold rings. Thanks!

What program did you use with the Deus 2 ?

Not necessarily on thinking targets were trash or missed.
The old park I shared in general discussion, all those years that I hammered that park..I Only dug high tones.
Never dug a single nickel or ring out of there.
