Took the pic of the goodies, and not the clad which was about three dollars(6 quarters, 11 dimes, 2 nickels, and 28 memorials). The good coins were:
3 Roosies
1 Merc
1 Buffalo
1 Shield Nickel
0 wheats(surprised)
6 Indians
1 silver ring missing stone
Had a detectorist with lots of experience tell me one time that folks don't wear rings with missing stones. When you dig a ring with a missing stone; the stone is there in the soil. Put the soil in a bag and sift it out when you get home.
If you can remember what hole it came from, you may want to go back and retrieve the soil around the hole and find the stone.
Great finds! It's amazing how the Indians so often are in better shape than the wheaties we find. Save some of these old houses in town for me.
