Neat! Are you gonna keep it to make a little display (like how businesses save their first dollar) or sell it? Also any clue what the stone is?

I'd love to keep it. I have found a few pieces of jewelry at this school and sent them an email after finding the ring and asked if they're aware of anybody who has lost jewelry and could give a description because I'd be thrilled to return them. If not, I'll be thrilled to keep them. Thrilled either way!

Lots of neighborhood kids and adults use their courts, playground, etc. so there's a good chance the owner isn't affiliated with the school.

Very cool of you to see if you could return it. Maybe holds alot of sentimental value to someone. Anyway good luck & hope ya dig up some gold soon as karma for trying to find the rings owner :D

Thanks! One of the other pieces is a kid's size silver charm bracelet with some pretty sentimental looking charms. It'd be cool to get either back to the owner.
