For sure. I'm going to try and locate an appraiser who deals in antique jewelry to get some idea of value. But since it is a plain ring, I'm thinking it's probably just worth the gold value ...

Wow! thats a ring! good old American quality probably from one of our gold strikes! the history may be worth more than the gold! the find thrill is worth more than it all. a good jeweler may be able to read the inscription with a high power loop, then the fun of got to know research of who lived on the site. could have belonged to a famous person or war dead. even more significance. that was an expensive piece back then even. and my father in law scoffs at me and pays to chase a golf ball around beating it with a club and grumbling. greatest hobby going. i would just have to hit that area hard again and again. be nice to plow it deep and do it again!

Actually, no one ever lived there. It was a hotel site ... visited by thousands of people over a 100 year span.

I'll take it to a jeweler and see if they can read it ...
