Maybe "Manila" ? Might have been in the Phillipines during WWII?
Cool find, no matter!

I have a similar ring, and it may be hand fashioned from a coin. Apparently things were kinda boring in the Phillipines in WWII. Very nice find and piece of history.

Those are some really cool finds. I think I like the ring the best. I love relics that have dates on them. Really cool.

Very nice job on the silver and the silver ring!

Re: 4 Lovely Ladys & a Silver ring

Mine isn't marked either Ron. And the version I have is pretty small like a kid's ring or a very petite woman's ring. Mine was found about 4 inches deep in a church yard near Omaha NE using a DFX.

Re: 4 Lovely Ladys & a Silver ring

Nice coins Ron, but the find of the day is definitely the ring. I think everyone that commented about the possibility of a homemade ring during overseas service is probably dead on. My grandpa was in Germany during WWII and my mom has countless items that he made to send home to my grandma. He was always a tinkerer and he made things out of plexiglass from crashed aircraft, toothbrushes, wire, you name it. Even a plexiglass heart with a small chunk of shrapnel imbedded in it...not sure if the shrapnel came from him being wounded or not.

Awesome, personal piece of this great country's history.
