Hi everyone. Went hunting for about 3 hrs after work this morning. The only notable find was this large ring with 3 turquoise stones in it. It isn't marked, except for the initials EN on the inside, but I think it's silver. It was only about 1 inch deep, and wasn't really tarnished (just dirty), plus it has that "whitish" look common to silver. If anyone is familiar with this type of jewelry, please feel free to chime in. Clad totaled just over $1. Pics below. Enjoy!!

I agree with Kermit's assessment. Hard to tell really how old that is. I visited Indian Reserves with my Dad where they make jewelry like that hand-made. It may be coin silver and not sterling silver, if so.
