Wow, this was really cool. Landlady saw me metal detecting in the yard and told me she had lost a treasured silver ring she got in Bali 5 years ago in her garden. I found it in an hour, she was almost crying. Detectorists are your friends!4yr ⋅ woodrodius ⋅ r/metaldetecting
My brother needed to shoot a test roll on this refurbished 1969 Bolex. So obviously we pointed it at the best subject there is.9mo ⋅ woodrodius ⋅ r/Warhammer40k
Another find from that 1906 Schoolhouse permission. I thought this was just plated costume jewelry, but once I got it cleaned up I found a very faint 925 mark, so it turned out to be a cool little silver ring.4yr ⋅ woodrodius ⋅ r/metaldetecting

A couple of weeks ago I posted about finding my landlady’s lost ring. It felt so good I ended up making a profile on TheRingFinders.com. In a couple of days I got my first call, & and today I reunited a guy with his lost wedding band. Highly recommend the site if it sounds like something you’d dig.4yr ⋅ woodrodius ⋅ r/metaldetecting
Got my first non-recovery gold find yesterday! 10k class ring from a Trinity College (there are several) with the initials “AB” and a class year of 1927. Tried to find a similar example but couldn’t find anything, if anyone recognizes anything about it and has some info, I’d appreciate it!4yr ⋅ woodrodius ⋅ r/metaldetecting
