After yesterday's great barber half find I was going to take a break today but the detecting bug woke me up early and said lets go, and sooooo glad I did. I have found many rings over the years but not any that I can really brag about, till today! Was going to head to my barber lot when on my way there I took a different route about 5 minutes away from it. Passing thru a neighborhood that dates back to the early 1900's when I seen one of the homes had recently been tore down and a empty lot was screaming at me to stop. After a very slow start and a few wheats and a mercury dime later I was thinking, not as good as I thought it was going to be, than bam! A strong 81-82 on my At pro, dug down about 4" when I seen it, still not sure what I had till I picked it up and realized I found my best ring ever. Looks from the style to be from the 1920's, Amethyst and diamonds and is 10k marked. Taking to Jewelers this week for cleaning and appraisal. I am one happy guy.

Its a beautiful ring with great craftsmanship. It may not be extremely old, but to find something like that at almost a 100 years old is amazing. Beautiful find!

You can call it banner if you like. Lol. Thanks.
 

I think the diamonds are cz and the cost in my opinion is 250-350 dollars
 

Very nice ring Ray, Vegas has an awesome history behind it and the amount of people through hopefully losing the bling-bling, You will have to take all your goodies to one of the casino's to rent their safe soon.:gold-bracelet:
 

Great ring. February birthstone. Good way to start the month.
 

Marvelous vintage ring in fabulous condition! Congrats! :hello2: :occasion16::wav::occasion16: :hello2:

You're on a roll which may last all year!!! HAVE FUN! Andi
 

I'm going to bet that the the top stone is NOT amethyst, but is a RARE Alexandrite stone. And that would make the value of your ring go quite high. I have seen one carat Alexandrite go for $30,000.oo. I sure hope that is the case for you, and if it is, your ring for sure is worthy of ''BANNER''.

Super Awesome Find! :notworthy:
 

That is a fantastic ring. Let us know what it is appraised at.

Old digger you just made my heart stop!!! Thanks for the info on this. I guess I live in the right place for playing the odds on this being Alexandrite. Lets hope! I sure would love a Banner.
 

Wow! That is a beautiful piece of jewelry. I love the older stuff. What will you name this lot?
 

Great find, I also tought alexandrite, move it from a light source to shade and see if it changes color, if its genuine and not lab made were talking royal flush, congratulations either way.
 

I'm wondering with such a nice setting if that is alexandrite...junes birthstone....a natural alexandrite is ber very pricey. Its a beauty!
 

I'm not a jewelry guy either, but BAM! That dude is gorgeous!
 

Absolutely stunning! Congratulations! Banner for sure! Can't wait to hear what THAT baby is worth!
 

It is a special find Ray Ray - as evidenced by the craftsmanship ! I can't wait to hear what you find out about this piece , Very Exciting !
 

Great pictures out of the ground. That ring is beautiful. Really like the style of it. Very ornate. Congratulations.
