SS hardware usually hits mid to high penny up to quarter in my Xterra

Why do you ask

An easy way to find out: take a stainless steel spoon and airtest that That would account for the composition. To mimic the size, you can take tin-snips, cut a thumb sized piece off the end of a stainless steel spoon (afterall, they're practically disposable, eh?), to test a small piece of stainless steel.

It might try to squeek in high, but they'll have a lousy "edge" to them.

Why would you think that anyone would make a "ring" out of stainless steel? I've never heard of that before (I'm assuming you mean a ring, as in jewelry to wear?). Titanium is a fairly new fad, and it looks like stainless steel. Perhaps you have a titanium ring? They read low, like gold.

Listen to Tom.......You can find a Stainless Steel ring and test it along side the nickel to see what the readings are. Not all detector would read alike.
