Old Ring

[MT Digger]

I found this ring in the local park last year. Has a huge stone and is marked STERLING. Not sure what kind of stone it is.

Nice find!,

I'll say is a citrine..

 

[Calworks]

A little hard to tell but it looks like a lighter and greener Topaz

I have an old 1927 plat map of the area and I pretty sure the park is pre-1927. The ring was about 4-4 1/2 inches deep. I am leaning towards citrine myself.

The stone look like tourmaline, and in an olive color lik ethat may be worth something, nice dig.

don't think its citrine. too light. maybe a yellow quartz. or it could be a CZ with color added. either way WTG! i've only found junk.
