Popular Post Joe Beechnut OBN Posted July 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2020 Seen a open window to get in a few hours Saturdays late lowtide. Not much day light but second target of the day a old 18k wedding band. Gave a null but I've had some good luck digging them of late so I went for it. About 12 plus inch's down things started sounding good. Not sure how deep it was but did take me about 9 minutes from start to finish. Once home I seen the inscription...Kind of though it said Sept, but after real close inspection I came up with Apil..which I think is April...I can only imagine Richards and Amy's tear's...MY guess it was lost the late 1800's.... Time to get back on the "AQ" Battery Project...been playing to much.. 19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Gold strikes again. I just saw an old post of yours as OBN on TN from about 6 years ago. I should read more of your posts there. Mitchel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogodog Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Great find, I sure wish I had some play time. Been hot as hell where I'm at, But that explains why you hunt the water, staying cool one ring at a time. Keep them coming!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing Againstmywill...Very Cool!! Just a guess they were in Washington DC area and stopped in for a swim at the beach.....I can only imagine 1875 ...10 years after the Civil war...And there visit possibly around the 1890's.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Imagine if you could follow the family line......and reunite it. I did this many years ago but the ring had a much later date on it.....1945 if I recall and quite specific names engraved. I tracked down the daughter of the rings owner (unfortunately had recently passed)......special moment for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
