Old ring and some chompers

[RelicMedic]

Took an hour early this morning to swing the coil at the beach before I went on a ring recovery mission. Didn't find the ring, but came up with a different one from the beach. As I was working the cut I got a choppy but repeatable signal, almost on the surface, as was the ring. Out came a set of chompers! Got the usual handful of 1920's-1960's pennies. Went to the house where dude lost his ring a year ago, but the brush was really high where he thinks it came off his finger. Did manage to dig up a UTEX tag, some clad and a 1954 20 Centimes. Not sure what the buckle thing is, but it was DEEEEP! Thanks for looking and HH

Too bad they weren't gold teeth !

Interesting to say the least

Nice finds! You can try putting the teeth under your pillow, but I doubt the tooth fairy will give you much for them.

I could be wrong, but I believe those chompers would be held together in a silver setting. So you might want to check that. Consider that they are in the mouth and just any metal wouldn't work.

They come up as 12:20-12:25 on the etrac. Not too sure what they are held together with. White gold would be nice! The ring is actually sterling! It's soaking in lemon juice and I can see the silver and STER with a hallmark starting to show through the crud!

Are you gonna try to return them to the ownerIt looks like they make a wonderful display!

Wonder how people lose their teeth so often?

Nope your correct. Usually a partial bridge like that is affixed with gold or silver. Silver is less common.

I'm really hoping it's white gold. 12:20-12:25 on the etrac...must be made of pull tabs lol...or gold
