My first diamond ring!

[washingtonian]

Hey all, my brother and I got out for around 2 1/2 hours today. Came up with the usual clad, a cub scout tie, a fishing weight, and this diamond ring. Luckily although my detector said it was foil I dug it and found it. Goes to show how it's worth digging all the signals. It is from an old area, and I believe the ring to be old from it's design. Thanks for looking everyone and HH

looks like lots of good stuff there! Congrats on the finds, especially your first ring!

Congratulations! The stone looks good, but I'd have it checked out for quality. Generally diamond rings have a sterling or platinum setting. The rust there doesn't look quite right for that stone, if it's a diamond. Good stuff though! Keep it up!

Congratulations Great ring, it does look old but as Noodle said, diamonds usually aren't in a setting that would rust and if the back behind the stone is closed then you may already know if it's a diamond or not. Never fear though, take it to a jeweler and they'll know for sure. Good job

Nice find. That diamond will never tarnish with time, but the ring part has a little wear.

Congrats! Always dig/search all metal! Foil & nichols are sometimes small or broken gold rings!
