2nd Test Drive, 1st Ring

[Joel]

I received my E800 on 1/15/18 but only have a few hours on it.  Today I found a ring marked WH 825 (82.5% silver I am presuming).  If anyone has any information or seen a similar ring I would appreciate the feedback.  I also found 2 quarters, 5 dimes & 14 pennies, all clad.  I'm definitely happy so far with the Equinox. I was using Park 1 and all preset settings.  I have attached 3 photos of the ring.

Joel, 

First off, that says 925 -- sterling!  BINGO!

Second, you won't believe this, but yesterday morning I dug a VERY similar ring!!  Smashed, but VERY similar!!! What are the odds of that?!

Check it out...

Wow. That is seriously coincidental. Nice going to both of you.

Yep thats 925 . Almost all Silver rings are i think . 

I found a Gold one on 13 October 2015 but it broke into pieces not long after finding it . Must have been on the beach for years 

Here it is when it was whole along with the coinage i found that day .

The ring is upside down , 10.2g   9k .

Always a nice find, got one last week myself, Claddagh ring is the name for it. I find a few each year but only one that was gold.

Good find!

Wow,  thanks for the extra info on the rings, guys!  I did not know that's what they were Irish/Claddagh rings!

Thanks for all the information, I really appreciate it.  I like to gather as much information and history on the things I find.  My wife has been doing family ancestry research and discovered she is part Irish.  She is going to get the ring, (it just happens to fit).
