I have been "digging" for 30 years(hence my username). This week alone, I have found 8 RINGS! But, NONE of them have been gold or silver, which is highly out of the ordinary. Usually, out of 5 rings, 2 will be gold, at least. These have all been plated, or just junk. I have found 4 gold rings this summer, and 5 silver ones. Ne real high-dollar ones, but good finds. If any of you are ever interested in getting into the hobby, P-M me with any questions. It is VERY therapeudic, also!
