Hudson Bay Company (HBC) trade ring, with the glass remaining it's a beauty. Congrats on that great find.
Personal preferance, I guess........I have left all mine the way I found them. However, I have straightened many pieces of Trade Silver that were damaged by farming equipment, but did not polish them.Whaaaat! Thats very cool.
With a find like this, is it better to leave it in its found condition? Or very carefully clean it up to try and bring out its original beauty?
