Hello this is my first post on treasure.net talking about my first find. A few weeks ago i was walking in the neighborhood park when i spot a ring the grass, i didnt use a metal detector so i guess it was a pretty lucky find.After some examination i found out it was a diamond ring with 1 diamond in the center with 2 smaller ones on either side of it. I also saw small gemstones on either side of the diamonds, about 4 on each side. Im not sure what kind of gemstones thos are,but anyways i put up flyers all over the neighborhood and the surounding area and after 3 weeks noone called to claim it. Well i decided to get it apraised at a local jewlry store. Actually im going today so after i come back i will post pictures and ill tell u guys how it went and most importantly how much its worth. I've decided that if the ring has any value ill buy a metal detector with the money from the ring, i've always like the concept of metal detecting and treasure hunting and i have a small coin colection that i want to had on to anyways :) So ill tell u guys how the apraisal went later today. cya

I've found a few rings on the top of the ground in the past.

Can't wait to see the pictures and hear how much it's worth.

Don't feel bad. I just had the same thing happen to me. I guess it's part of metal detecting. Mine was about 1.5 K I thought, oh yeah :'( But the jeweler said, oh NO! ;D
 
Sorry to hear about the ring. I have done that before too. Good luck on the metal detector.......Lots of fun!!!
