Hello all!

I was out last week and nabbed 2 rings... One is brass but this one looked great in the basket and I am pretty sure its junk, but ... *shrug*

Paul, that's quite a ring find! Elaborate setting! The stones are beautiful! :hello2:

Do you have a silver test kit?

I Like it! Congrats! :hello2: :hello2: :hello2:

But it looks to be closer to junk than silver. I think a small piece of egg yolk touching the ring for a day or so will turn silver black.

I keep my rings in a ring case and I put "junk" rings in there when they are special looking. I even have an interesting wooden ring in my 1st case.

If you'd like to see a photo...give a holler..I'm always ready.

If it was me I would take it to a jeweler and find out for sure. I don't know how many times I have seen posts on here from people that say "this was in my trash pile" and it turns out to be a good find. Either way it's a nice find :thumbsup:

This is So true. I was going through my junk pile the other day and saw stamp marks on a ring that I didn't see when I dug it. So I came home and threw it in the junk pile. Later saw 18k and 950.....STFU! I couldn't believe it. I have also dug rings that are white gold with NO stamp. You never know.

Well, blingady, blingady! Who wears rings like that?? I hope it is at least sterling so it has a little bit of value!

(Okay, my mother like those gaudy rings, but then again, she never goes to the beach..... )
