Canada antique / vintige catholic wax seal or signet rin 18K.

The last 2 days has been great for me. I hit a hole that just keeps on giving. The first day was 2 gold rings 2 - 14k. Day 2 was 4 rings 2 - 14k, 1 - 10k, and 1 - 18k. The lighter is very old also. I buff. 1 Murc. But my best fine of the day was that 18k a whopping 14.6g. It is very old and could be from Canada antique / vintige catholic wax seal or signet ring. One of a kind ring belonging to a Bishops, Cardinals, and other papal authorities. The seal has "Tiens A La Verite" and wheat stalks I think. This is the best find I have ever found of historical scale. This beats out my find of my GW button. Only because I could find a other one. But I will never find a ring like this a gain it is one of a kind. I am have a hard time to find out about it. It seems to date to the 1800's But I also found something in the 1700's. I don't think it goes back that far but who know. The makers mark is JW also 18 with no K that should help to date it. I hope I will find out. Here is my photo's Thanks MineLab for that great CTX 3030 it is killing the gold.
 
Hot Damn! :surprised::drool::puke: Way to go! Yep, that's huge gold and great finds all around! :thumbup:

BLING very nice
 
Wow that is awesome congrats great photos as well. Let us know what you find out please.
 
Congrats on an excellent find. And based on what I can see, it may be quite valuable as well. From what appears to be lettered inside the band, you may get a pretty good lead on it's history. The Honorable Lord de Blaquiere and his family are well known in both Irish and Canadian politics. HH Randy
 
Wow that is nice, Question? did they have that kind of machine in the 1700's or 1800's to write on the inside of the ring like that ?
 
That my friand is all hand carved. I can see that in the loop no machine here. I though it might be from a Bishops, Cardinals, and other papal authorities. But now it seem's not It may be bigger that that wow what did I find what was he doing in Maine in the 1700's buying land. There wes Indan wars here around that time.
 
Wow! sounds like you really hit it big, hope it's everything you hope it is. your right I forgot about how they hand carved their pocket watches, guns,etc, you did great, congrats, Gene
 
Wow, I missed this post before. Those are some fantastic finds. I think you're right. That's a once in a lifetime find. Congrats!
 
http://lordbelmontinnorthernireland.blogspot.com/2010/09/barony-of-de-blaquiere.html Take a look at WOW.
He was : The Rt Hon Sir John Blaquiere Bt KCB, 1st Baron de Blaquiere. His first name changed when he became a Baron Lord de Blaquiere.
It looks like that he gave this ring to his son the 5th or the 6th William de Blaquiere. WOW I am the proud owner of a very historical ring. I have put it in a bank safe for safe keeping. This may be very valuable. I am still digging for more info I will up date as I find more. Thanks all
 
Holy cow, that is a top shelf find to be sure - treasure if I ever saw it! Congratulations!
 
Here is a up date on the ring : .Part 1 ..I think the ring was lost and belonged, or was passed down to, William de Blaquiere, 6Th Baron de Blaquiere of Ardkill (1856-1920), as he appears to be one of the only two family members to have crossed the Atlantic, the other being Peter Boyle de Blaqui
 
I it always fun to hunt with friends. The funny thing about this ring. It was meant for me to find that ring. Everyone and there brother has been working that hole for the last 6 weeks and then I show up. You would think that hole was cleaned up. I know one of the guys and he has a excal II. And he know that excall II inside and out that all he uses. That day I found that ring he had been in that hole and only found 2 silver and 1 toe junk ring the 2 days before. That tells me that the CTX 3030 with the 17" coil is going deeper then his excal II and I Keeped pulling out the rings. He was not 12 ft. away from me and I pulled a 14k gold ring right next to him. That I ended up with 1-18k the find of the day William Barnard de Blaquiere, 6th Baron and that was at least 15" down, 2-14k, 1-10k and 1 silver Notre Dame high school ring. WOW how sweet is that MineLab you rock love that CTX 3030.
 
I am William the 6th and I demand my ring! Hehe! Nice find!
