The totals. It's not a gold ring, but a doublé. A gold layer on top of base metal.
Button on the far left has a nice snowflake design to it.

The middle "weaved" button had an attempt to repair it. I've seen the type before, but never with solder on the back.
Obviously the attempt to repair it failed...

My favorite button of this hunt:

During a little break I decided to hike around a bit..
Here's probably the reason we're finding so "much"; it was torn down in the 1990's. Judging by the finds, not very old either.
In what might have been the front yard the deus goes of like a machine gun. Tons of iron.

I've not been able to find a reference piece in Sweden to date it.
Almost all other finds date to the 19th century's later half, so I assumed the same for this piece.
