These items were in the same hole. The two silver rings are marked. The pendant trim leaves a grey mark on paper as do the rings. The greenish stone has defects in it. The white one is a mystery. Could be stone or shell. Has this natural inlay that goes all the way through. The chain is plated at best. Leaves shiny flakes

Sweet finds. Stuff looks old.
They may have been buried together in a cardboard box or envelope, which have deteriorated over time.
Congrats on finding a possible cache.

Show closer pics of the rings, they look old. If hallmarks are present, let us know that too.

That's a sweet set of finds, especially from one hole.

Well done sir!

Well done sir!

The one with the square setting has a mark on the outside of the band. Looks like numbers, but canโ€™t say it is 925. No other marks found with a 40X loupe.
The one with the oval setting is very crudely wrinkled on the inside of the band. There is a distinctive 925 and on the other side a distinctive capital S. The pics are as close as I can get and maintaining focus.

I gotta' believe they may have been stashed away there intentionally. Anyhoo, Well Done mate. Love the old jewelry. Really cool pendant. :headbang:
