1935 Babe Ruth Club Quaker cereal ring

[ModernMiner]

Well Folks it looks like my new AT Pro has done its job. I went back to the farmhouse that I've detected the last few times and reworked the front yard. The only keepers I found were a 1920 wheat and a ring. It was about 8" deep and I first thought there was a round stone on the front. When I got it home and cleaned it though I saw it was not a stone but a baseball. I then Googled "antique baseball ring" and found out it was actually a 1935 Babe Ruth Club ring from Quaker cereal.
Mine isn't anywhere the condition of this one, but here's one on Ebay:

Never saw one before. Pretty cool.
Thanks for looking,
MM

That has to be a fairly rare find - I'm sure I've never seen one here before !

Thanks Argentium. I would love to make it into a display if I could find one of those original Quaker ads at a decent price.

Way to go buddy on finding the 'Babe.' I think I recognize that wine bottle cork! Breezie

I wonder if it would be expensive to have it re-plated?

LOL. Thanks Breezie. I was going to sell it to Quindy as a rare CW cork that was used around the campfire on bean night.

Nicely done! How was it ringing when you found it? 8 Inches is pretty deep, did the signal/VDI changed when you opened the plug? What were the numbers?

Perses,
It was a faint signal with no reading. I almost didn't dig it. I'm glad I did. I got the pinpointing down pretty well now.
Still no Barber quarter.
