Seated Sterling and Gold

[deano]

I got out a few times this week when weather permitted and went back to the area where I found the '10 s Barber dime. This time I found my first Seated coin of the season, a well worn 1888 dime, a 1904 Barber dime and a 1907 IH. They were all about a foot apart in a straight line so I'm thinking pocket spill. I dug another IH an '06 this time and then I dug the 1911 V nickel took a few steps and thought I had another one and out came the 14K gold ring, it has the year 1911 on it and engraved inside the band is a womans name. The sterling bracelet is from the same area and has a name on it also. I will be making a trip to the library to try to research the womans name as there isn't anyone around here with that last name. I did find several Lesters in the phone book and will just need to decide where to start. I also found the Jimmie Allen Flying Cadet pin complete and intact till I got home and the pin came off the back. The Rosies and wheats are from our club outing yesterday and the '41s Merc is from the old park here. Thanks for looking and HH

Man O Man, I would have been in heaven if I would have had a hunt like that!

That decorative signet ring is superb, and that 1930's Skelly Oil Jimmie Allen DC-3 pin is very cool!

....and all that silver. My kind of stuff. I'm jealous!

Perfect finds - gold, silver, old coins. It always amazes me when people think metal detecting is boring!

Keep us posted on the owners, that ONE HUNDRED YEAR OLD ring might have a grand child or great grand child who would love to have it!
