Greetings! Great day!  Grin Took my daughter out for some MD at the park, and got some clad (9 pennies and 2 dimes) and this ring!
Now she wants to keep it in remembering of our first find together.  Angry so, now I can't sell it off. Anyone happen to have an idea what this might be worth? Not sure of the gold content - can't see/read the markings. I weighed the ring, and it came up 1.1 grams.

Perhaps if I had an idea of what it was worth and told her that price, maybe she might reconsider. Anyway - I think that possibly that stone in is is a diamond too.

Thanks!
UPDATE: I found a good magnifying glass, and found what it says now. It reads "14KTIAWANEDCO" I don't know what the EDCO means thought?
Now that I know it's 14k - anyone have a clue what it's worth now? I'm guessing it's a promise ring. Looks to be about 1/10th of a karat (at most).

2nd update: Crap!  Angry
It's a piece of costume jewelry. It really reads 14KT GE Taiwan EDCO. Costume Jewelry. oh well - it was fun getting it.

A buddy of mine said that down in AZ he was MD a dry creek bed that passed under a bridge. So he did some swinging in there, and got lots of coins in the dry bed! I guess people as they'd drive down this old dirt road - would stop by the creek (when it was running at the time), and would pitch a few coins over the bridge. I think he said that they got lots of silver. Sounds like a good idea is to look at dry creek beds that are crossed by a bridge.  Grin

Oh, I forgot to mention also - I also hit on and pulled up a decent purple Hot Weels car. I didn't want it, so we washed it off and my daughter gave it to a friends' brother (he's 12 yrs old). Who I'm sure would appreciate it cause he plays with them.
So, is there any value in them? Should I be saving them, and listing them on ebay if their still fully intact?
What do you guys do with them?
I was just curious.

Zul - there are websites devoted to the Hot Wheels and there values ,  Don't think one that's been buried
for anylength of time will be worth a whole lot unless it's a super rare model , I have only found a few and
those were so messed up they were trash,

Now the Real Treasure is in Aluminum  !!  Cheesy  Grin  Cheesy  That's Where the Money Is !!!  Grin  Grin  Grin
