treasurehunters nightmare

[Yucon Cornelius]

Im detecting at the soccer field, just killin time while my daughter has softball practice. i'm diggin my usual scrap iron, pulltabs, sodacaps, aluminum. (I dig every signal, im retired)
my friend comes walking up to ask if my lil boy wants to go for icecream, of course he does he's 5. she stops bout 10 from where i'm diggin, looks down and says, "hey look here". she bends down and picks up this (attached photo)
on the back is printed tiffany & co. it has 10 diamonds accross the front.
That's the luck i have had so far this year. i figured i would post this little story to cheer up anyone going through a dry spell.

At least a friend found it so that helps just a little i suppose.

I do like your attitude though and can learn from you in life.

Thanks for sharing the story and know that it does not reflect on you except in a very positive way. That is what class is and what class does in those kinds of situations.

I feel your pain brother, I feel your pain!! My luck usually runs the same. But sometimes all the planets line up and the wind blows just right and you get that sweet ring in your ear and the hole you digrewards you well. Just keep swinging man, it will come! Good Hunting!

I was going to say,,, yep,, sounds about like my luck. But, if it had been one of my friends that found it they probably wouldn't even ofter to share... Bad luck?,,, or bad friends?,,, hmmm...

Congrats to you both, & Happy hunting~

I can relate. Last summer at Myrtle Beach I spent several mornings searching the beach with my metal detector finding nothing more than clad. While relaxing with the family my daughter finds a heavy sterling ring with her foot right where we parked our gear every day. Needless to say, I never heard the end of that for the rest of our stay. Almost a year later and I have yet to find anything as nice . HH

 

[Yucon Cornelius]

she had it appraised today. $3500.00. we are awaiting his offer. noone has called on the lost n found add.
