Old lead and tin ring

[Heavygold4me]

I found this ring at a beach that has been used since the 1800’s. I had the ring tested and it is mostly lead with a small amount of tin and the pearl is fake.

I have no idea how old it is, maybe someone here can help with that.

Not sure about age either but cool find!

My guess is the 60's, because of the design. Also if it was more tin and a little lead it would be pewter. Lead toys and jewelry has been popular since the early 1900's .... lead is easy to cast. I would say the ring was older but the design is more modern. Just my opinion.
