HAVE YOU EVER FOUND A TREASURE VALUABLE OR NOT?

Finding something, whether you're walking through a Woods or down the street, or digging a hole, that has value is always exciting. For example , 2 years ago, I found a $20 bill right on my front lawn, and I did search for more.

Sometimes, I find things that have no monetary value, but I still consider them Treasures because I like them. A few years ago, my daughter gave me a jagged rock that she found, resembling the face of Frankenstein. I kept it on my desk for years. Unfortunately, I haven't seen it since we had a house fire.

This past Saturday, my wife was cultivating a flower bed to remove weeds when she uncovered a Cut Crystal Ball. It's not big, maybe an inch and a half around, I immediately liked it. I cleaned it off and put it on a window sill so the sun could make it sparkle. It's not uncommon when digging around my property to find items from prior tenants. The original house is over 135 years old, and back then, they used to bury their garbage, we have found old bottles, tools, and parts of a coal stove. These unexpected surprises are fun.

Tell your stories of finding a treasure whether valuable or not.

Nope, I am not lucky enough to find treasure only money.

I found the girl who is my Wife of 55 years! What a Treasure she is!

More to your question......I remember reading this story in the paper:
Woman finds long-lost diamond ring on carrot in garden (2017)



"Mary Grams, 84, was devastated when she lost the ring while weeding on the family farm in Alberta in 2004. But she had kept the ring's loss a secret from all but her son for more than a decade. On Monday, her daughter-in-law discovered the secret - and the ring - when she pulled up a lumpy carrot. The carrot had grown straight through the ring, enabling it to be plucked out after many years hiding in the soil. She had decided not to tell her husband when she lost it, out of embarrassment, but she told her son. She went out and bought a slightly cheaper replacement ring, and carried on as if nothing had happened. "Maybe I did the wrong thing, but you get so worked up," she said. No one was the wiser, until this week when her daughter-in-law Colleen Daley decided she wanted some carrots for supper."

Just thought of something. A broken white brick. Found in a pile of rubble in the basement (dirt floor) of my house when I first bought it. No idea who these two were. I like to imagine.
