Wow, one of the best finds/story I've read here. I would have been excited about the coins, bit to find your own Class ring is just unbelievable!
BTW you found it on my birthday(07/05), really good luck. This story is why I got into this hobby, you just don't want to stop digging!

I wish I can find my class ring. It seems like everyone loses their class ring. Mostly everyone that I know has lost their class ring. I'm glad you found yours back and I'm glad you had a great time! HH! -Don

No, the ring does not even come close to fitting any more. I went on to break that finger, ironically playing basketball, and am now double jointed in that finger. That, and age, barely allows the ring to go over the first knuckle. I still can't believe I found my ring and often find myself staring at it thinking back to high school. I wish there was a way to calculate what the odds were of me finding it.

One of the best stories ever on this forum. Talk about a walk down nostalgia lane. Wow! I bet a lot of memories came flooding in when you found that ring.
Thanks for posting it.
