Default Gold! Rings 29 and 30 and...

Had a nice morning here and got out for an hour or so. Went to a local soccer field and combed the edge near the fence where everyone always drops their gear. Didn't take long and I had rings #29 and 30 in my hand, along with a key, a fist-full of clad, a cheap earring and a 1942S Wheat that is in great condition.

Ring 29 is a very large 10kt gold 1970 B.A. UNM class ring. Ring 30 is a small silver heart toe ring.

Hope you all have a good weekend out finding treasures!

Thumbs up Great Finds!

Great looking wheatie! The class ring looks absolutely pristine.
I am definitely going to investigate sites like the soccer field. That's a good tip for treasure hunting. Thanks for the tip and good pictures.
Happy hunting!
