My First Gold Class Ring!!

Twin Digger · Oct 1, 2009

Hello everyone. It's been a good month since my last posting due to work. But I guess the wait was worth it. I knew of this town hall that was getting relocated to the county fair grounds and I have been checking the site for several weeks. They finally got the house up on it's bed for transporting and they did alittle grading. I got permission to hunt the property a while ago and took the chance to see if it was all clear to hunt. Well it paid off. about an hour into my hunt I found several wheat pennies and a quarter. But as I started around the front of the foundation I came across a nichol reading and started to move a piece of sod. Well I thought it might be an Buffalo but was wrong. behind the dirt was a ring!!!

I was pretty happy because it's my first Gold ring and it so happened to be a Class Ring. But it looked like it got hit several times with either a lawn mower or the bobcat got it. Well no matter what it was a very nice find for me.. The oldest wheatie was a 1936. all the others were in the 40's and 50's. No Silver to be found but I still have about another good 2 hours to hunt it. I'm going back later this week-end to check out the status of the grading and hopefully hit some silver.

Enjoy the pic's.

Thanks for the kind words...... Gold is Gold!!! I really have a taste for going out and hunting more now!!!!!! to bad we have had rain the last several days... Thanks again everyone.
