It's literally been years since I've played the game looking for normal items (since I have only played BNR the last couple years) but I'll try to remember some of the good stuff.
I found a 34/20 Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac back in Feb or March '97. It was on a cheated character so I ended up throwing that one away.
I've found plenty of other nice jewels (which I can't remember now) but that was probably the top find.
My Useless Bow of swiftness is one of my favorite finds. I forget which one of my characters found that, but I definitely would have used it if I could find enough hidden shrines for it.
My first purist character (a rogue... 90% of my characters are rogues) found a king's bastard sword of speed, 175/96. This would normally be a great find but Stu(Pure) usually did hell runs and it's only useful against dogs in hell thanks to Civerb's Cudgel.
Speaking of CC's, I've found dozens of them. The best has to be the time I've found one in the 2nd barrel to the left of the stairs on dlvl 1. I've had games where I've found two (non game-duped) CCs too but I've never found one for Stu(BNR).
I'm sure I have plenty more item stories but those are the only interesting ones that I can remember.
