Afternoon all!
Ventured off the Cape this morning to a park on the South Shore, where I've found a nice amount of coins, including a couple of Seated's. Got a signal that sounded like silver, and after I located it and tossed it into my bucket, I was pretty sure I had a silver ring. After a little cleanup, I had a statue of liberty ring. Pretty big piece with red, white & blue gemstones. I've never seen one like it prior to today.
A little research provided the following:
Here’s a great example. This is a sterling silver ring with colored rhinestones depicting the Statue of Liberty. It dates to the 1920’s to 1930’s. It’s not worth a lot, maybe $50 to $60. The mark on the back is C and R which stands for the firm of Cohen and Rosenberger who went on to become Coro, at one point the largest maker of costume jewelry in the world.
Went on to find a nice 1941 Merc and a half-dozen wheat's, oldest being 1918.
I've attached pictures of the ring and coin- hope you enjoy them.
HH all!
