My first time to post

[Huntin' 59er]

Hi Everbody,

I'm new here to the Forum and this is my first time to post anything, so bear with me. I'm still learning how all of this works and hope to get better at it as time goes on. I have been metal detecting off and on for about twenty years. My current detector is a Garrett GTI-1500 which I am still learning to use. I have never found anything that I would consider spectacular but I really enjoy the hobby. I enjoy reading about everyone's finds here on the Forum and am also learning from you all. What I consider my best find to date is a man's gold wedding band that had been lost for about 45 years. The man had passed away, but I was able to return it to his wife who was still living. She really appreciated my returning it to her.

Welcome aboard, 59er.

I like the story about the ring. It's a good feeling to be able to do something like that that means so much to someone. I have found a few rings but only one really good one and I could not identify the owner.

Welcome, look forward to your future posts!
I too have found a ring(about 14 years ago), it is a class ring from 1974..............and to date I have not been able to track the owner, but hopefully someday I will!!
It does make you feel good when you can return a long lost article to the rightful owner though doesn't it.
