Hello fellow Detectorists,
I am going to need a little help from the community on this one. So my father and I were out detecting my grandmothers 1940's farm house when I discovered a little present (Pics shown below). I called my dad over when I pulled this potential gem of a ring from the cold soil. Him and I were both trying to look for a stamp or makers mark on the ring hoping that it was gold or silver. We did find a stamp on the inside of the ring the appeared to read "ch 188", but the ring does not seem heavy enough to be a precious metal. Also, I did a magnet test with my 250lb test magnet and no attraction what so ever. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Hockey Detectorist
Edit: It appears that it actually reads "IBB CN" which is from the International Bullion & Metal Brokers.
