Big Finger Silver

Leave-No-Coins-Behind · Dec 9, 2018

Went back to a large school complex that I have not been to in months. Much of the competition has picked over the easy usual areas. I worked some of the odd-ball and the trashy picnic type table areas.

About 4" down nearby the tables, I found a beefy .925 silver ring, never-the-less, the stone looks imitation.

Have to get these last few days in as the ground is starting to freeze up.

Thanks Wolf-Dog! I was real happy just with the clad but the ring really got the blood circulating.

Thanks Truth1253! Sometimes those rings are found in the darnest of places.

Thanks GroundSweeper! Don't get me wrong, if only the stone would be real. But it is all welcomed.

Thanks metaladdict! It has been a good year for rings. But unfortunately most that I had found were junkers.

Thanks WyoTom! I was just so glad to see that it had the maker's mark stamped inside.

Thanks cellrdwellr! I appreciate it all, but hopefully, some more gold finds it way underneath my coil. But if not, silver works too.

Not my taste, but wow that's a honker of a ring. Congrats.

Thanks TrailDuster! I hear you...that's probably why they lost it too.

Thanks NCtoad! It makes a good substitute for a silver coin or two.

Thanks Captain Silver! Some days I am more luckier than others. It kind of breaks up the clad finds nicely.

Great looking Sterling Ring and another very nice clad haul JAK. Congrats! Trapper

Found with Nox?

Do you remember the VDI number?

Just curious.

I found a very thin Claddagh .925 that came in in the copper penny range with a very weak ping depending on the sweep angle.

Waveoff · Dec 10, 2018

Congrats on the nice ring! Maybe the stone is a cheap semiprecious stone like topaz or tourmaline?

Thanks Trapper! It was one of my bigger silver rings this year. It is always a nice surprise when I finally get home to see .925 stamped inside of it.

Yes, with he NOX. It came in as solid #27.

Thanks Waveoff! Good point you make about the stone. I will eventually have it checked out. Overall, it does look like a quality made ring.

Thanks Soil Surgeon! It is always a good feeling when the coin pouch gets full when the day is over.

Thanks pinheadken! For me to find those many coins was a good way to possibly finish for the year as the ground is freezing up.
