WTG... . Is there some sort of inscription on the inside of the ring? Is it legible ?

Keep up the great detecting.

WOW ~ that's GREAT!!!

Can you let us know what's engraved inside? I can't make it out in the picture.

IT SAYS I THINK... "H.K. to M.B. June 4th 1876" the writting is old fasion cursive fancy so its hard to tell...

Thats a very nice ring and to be dated 1876.

These people were being married as Custer and the 7th Cavalry were marching towards Little Bighorn and their fateful encounter with the Plains Indians.

And probably reading about United States Centennial Celebrations to be held the following month on July 4th.


You know, this is really a great find--I'd take this one over any new ring anyday. It's great to have one that is not only personal, but also speaks across the ages.


Well done, and a Heartfelt Congratulations to you. I'm sure you'll enjoy and admire this find for years to come.



Regards,

A great find, and one you should keep! I found a similar one, with initials to and from, dated Feb 18, 1912. To this day, I'm sorry I sold it .
