My precious roman gold carnelian seal intaglio...an amazing experience...

yo6oej · Oct 13, 2010

Hello my friends...

10/10/2010 Sunday I went with a friend in the neighboring county to about 55 km from me in a location where we've found a few days before the traces of ancient battles fought in medieval times but also high cliffs around lies a pasture where we've found arrows and spears, but also ancient and medieval brooches, pieces of armor of all time...Has appeared a signal on the screen nonferrous metal currency possible gold in Garrett 2500 GTI and depth of 6 inches but I have no hope of digging thought something...I thought it happens every time to find a beer bottle cap and when I saw the side of a glittering ring ... I could not believe I found a gold ring with carnelian seal Roman intaglio engraving that was a scene in depth the battle between mythological characters Hercules and Anteu...

:wav:

It was in perfect condition as if someone placed it there in the ground a few minutes in front of me... :icon_king:

In Romania never found something like that and I still do not believe it 3 days after the discovery... :occasion15:

Before I give the ring specialists took photos that we show with you... :hello2:

Truly an amazing find!!! What a stunning piece. Just think if this ring could talk what stories it would share. You can't help but think there's got to be more in the area.

Good work and keep us posted on any additonal finds.

There is nothing I can add to this find that hasn't already been said. I do know that viewing your photos have rejuvenated my desire to get out there and find something! The craftsmanship is stunning. It makes me wonder what it cost when it was made.

Thanks again for your wonderful photos and for energizing my resolve to keep on swingin'!

Everyone here is so affirming and good-natured about it, but I just have to come out and say it ...

It must suck to have to take a treasure that you invest money (i.e. equipment), time, effort, research, and sweat in discovering and simply hand it over to a confiscatory government.

Now I feel better.

And that's all I've got to say about that.
