Today I literally struck gold for the first time in a while.
There is story behind this ring and will make it brief as possible. Yesterday at the end of 6 plus hours of water hunting a gentleman came out and said he lost his ring in the water and showed me two points of reference on the shore to go by. I was dead tired and could not go mentally or physically but tried for 30-40 minutes. I advised the man to give the lifeguard his name and number and I would come back tomorrow and look hard. Well second target today was his ring as he had told me it was 18K mens wedding white gold. Went to the lifeguard station and they asked and no one had left any name or number to get in touch with should ring be found. The radio's all stations and no one had anyone come up yesterday and give them information for contacting. Yesterday he was willing to offer $300.00 for the ring and today no way to get it to him. I advsied lifeguard I would be back to check if he should come by. Worst case scenerio is I have a mens wedding band.
This leads to my next question went by jeweler to pick up my wifes ring and there was a gold buying place next door. I have and had no thoughts of selling just wanted to weigh the thing. They said it 6.5 pennywaight and 10.1 grams. I do not know enough to know if this is a heavy ring or not. It is very weighty and thick. ANyone no what this means? By the way they said they would pay $165.00 for the ring. I laughed and left.
I was thankfull to find even though I thought it would go back to the owner.
Everyone keep looking the next dig could be the one you have been looking for.
Hope you enjoy
