Little shield, and a little silver ring

[Vino]

Stopped for a hour before I got called back to work.
Has anyone seen a shield like this before? Iam thinking it could be off a knife or something like that.
It was found at a old home site from the mid 1700s.
Thanks for looking George

Very intricate looking ring. Would have been nice for the stone to be there.

I second RJ55, that ring looks like a work of art, would love if the stone had still been there, great find.

George, your little shield looks like a shoe button cover. I found one last year. Member nhbenz thought this style was popular in the 1920's.




That ring looks very ornate. I would not have even expected a Sterling mark on it. Would have been great to have found the stone too.

I found a ring very similar to that one earlier this year. It was actually the first ring i ever found. It was marked sterling as well. Mine had a big red "stone" in it which looks non precious to me. I'll get a pic when I'm home.
