This is my 100th post which now makes me a full member here at T-Net, 
I'm glad its a good one. 
Yesterday It was very foggy and kind of cold here in Washington. I decided to try real trashy park nearby to try its tot lot. When I got there I found the tot lot fenced off with a backhoe parked in the middle of it so I couldn't hit it. I didn't feel like dealing with the mega trash this particular morning so I decided to finish gridding the park I found the Chinese coin in a while back. Didn't find much of anything but trash there so with only an hour left to hunt I decided to head to the park I like to call the dime park because that's practically all I ever dig there.
Someone had gone through there recently and left all there holes unfilled and just left all there pull tabs and trash sitting right in those open holes.
My random wanderings over the next 45 minutes only produced a lot of trash and 4 pennies. 
I was feeling pretty discouraged and just kind of meandering back to my car when I hit another penny signal. I almost walked away but said to myself "Self", I said, "Pennies are money. Lets just make it an even nickle and go home".
After I dug the plug I looked in the hole and saw what looked like another wine seal. I reached in and grabbed it and to my surprise it was HEAVY. That's when I realized it was gold! Normally my detector thinks rings are nickles but this ring was vertical in the ground so the round top was up making it indicate a coin. I tucked it in my treasure pouch and headed for the car. When I got there I pulled it out and wiped away the mud and sure enough there was the 14K mark.
When I got it home I did a quick weighing and it it a 15.8 gram 14K gold mans ring. I'm glad such a nice find could be my 100th post. ( I guess 100th posts are luckyThank )you for reading this and H.H. everyone.
