1940`s house yard gold and silver

[jsu]

Got out this weekend to search a 1940`s house yard found a couple of things.The yard was really nice and clean (hardly any junk other than the aluminum can that got shredded by a lawnmower in one side of the yard)which made it easy detecting.Found a 10k mens ring with a stone in it that i cant identify.Also a military medal and a pin that i need some help identifing.The pin has W.B.C on it.Found a couple of coins from the 40`s and some clad.Also a toy soldier which appears to be made of lead.I guess back then it was okay to let your kids play with lead.Thanks for checking this out.HH

Really nice ring!

Looks like a cameo ring--or perhaps an old class ring. Any inscriptions inside the band?

Either way, nice find! Gold rings are great to find, but OLD ones are better. Nice work.

I tried to find your medal but no luck I thought at first it might be a Legion of Merit but it's one arm short, and the center is different. Does it have any markings on the back?

Great stuff! The stone looks to be some kind of agate maybe. It's beautiful! Try this link to see if you can identify it. Good Luck!
