I haven't been posting much lately 'cause I've been busy but I did find another nice little silver ring today and figured I'd post it along with a couple of other recent finds.

I hit my favorite field today that always seems to give up something. After poking around for a little while I got a nice high hit and out popped this little beauty:

The marks are pretty worn but I can still make out the "25". It's another small pinky ring but it's silver so I'm happy. I believe the stone may be onyx.

I also found a huge junker that made my heart skip a beat or two for a brief moment:

These are ring numbers 44 & 45. I have two other junkers I haven't posted yet. The old Delta seems to just love sniffin' out those rings.

The next finds are from a couple other recent hunts. I found this sergeant pin at another field. I believe it's brass.

It's pretty bent up but I may be able to straighten it out. It wasn't three inches down. I kinda' feel bad for whoever lost it but I have no way of returning it.

And last but not least I was hunting a soccer field about a week ago and dug up two miniature soccer balls from opposite ends of the field. The silver colored one feels like hard plastic but the tiny clasp is actually silver. It rang up at a solid 80. I think it probably fell off a chain. The other one is some type of metal but I have no clue exactly what kind. I can't remember where that one rang up.

That's pretty much it for now. I have a pretty big pile of stuff I need to go through before I can post any of it. There are a few cool things in the mix (nothing outstanding) but I just haven't had time to go through it all.
So, until next time........

Thanks for lookin' & HH

Indeed it is; one of the gaudiest I've ever dug.
It's so huge that there's actually an inner ring inside the ring so it doesn't slide off.

That worked well didn't it??
