Found this while detecting today you can lie to me and say its Ancient and I can retire or tell me the truth and at least I had a moment of hope. Thanks in advance Tommy I have no idea what it is. It is the size of a nickle. The ring was for todays finds oops IMG_0616.JPG IMG_0617.JPG

Ok, Ok, I'll be the liar......That is a very rare!! and valuable....Stalks of wheat coin!!! Very rare metal too! It's only found in fallen space rock.

I can't even put a value on it! It's going to be a hard sell though since no one person has that much money to pay for it. That's the down side.

Hey Tommy, sorry your find isn't going to get you into retirement and pay off your girls tuitions, but don't give up hope, your odds are better than winning the lottery.
