My dad used to collect leaf mould from the woods near our house when I was growing up. One day he was cleaning his fork and found a ring stuck on one of the tines - 18ct gold and 3 diamonds (one missing) probably an engagement ring.

All I have ever found was an old but quite pretty silver spoon in someone else's garden. I gave it to the garden's owner and she looked at it like I'd handed her dog mess. Bet it went in the bin.
