Wow they are in great condition. The coloring is not going to effect the coins. The detail on them is very crisp. Nice finds. Is the ring something a priest would wear? Looks interesting. Congrats.
 
Welcome to our family. Congratulations on your success. That sure is a lot of great finds. Hope that is just the beginning for you. Looks like you hit the jackpot!!:yes:
 
Hey dive hunter where are you from? I'll get my 1st stage back from the dive shop next week. They are putting a DIN kit on my 1st stage. I can't wait to get in the water. One lake around here I was planning on diving won't let anyone dive or swim for that matter. The other won't allow metal detecting because a detectorist found a ring on the beach several years ago and I guess he showed it to the woman because she found a Park Ranger and claimed it was hers's and it started a big commotion. My old neighbor used to set hooks in his farm ponds in Shelbyville Ky. He would bring them back and eat them. He kept them in his back yard in 55 gallon drums. These things had a shell the size of a trash can lid and a head the size of a softball. That would be the only thing I'd be afraid diving in a farm pond.
 
Great hunt! Good luck on your return trips. The silver class ring is cool - any markings to help return it? That would make for a very interesting lost and returned story.
