I was replacing carpet the other day at a house and while I was rolling up the old carpet I looked down and spied this beautiful little gold ring laying at my feet. This isn't the first time this has happened either.
I could tell it was gold and I could see an inscription inside the band but I couldn't read it so I put it in my pocket and went about my business. When I got home later that day I put a loupe to it and could see it was marked 18k and had a date of 27/10/66 inside of it. I asked the man I was doing the job for if he knew anything about the previous occupants and he said that it was a foreclosure and he didn't know anything about the previous owner. I tried a property search but it was in the name of an LLC. Oh well, I guess it's mine now.
