From the looks of it and the fact that it is marked COIN and not STERLING I would say that it was a Victorean era ring. congrads on the find.

Do you do kid's birthday parties too? It would be great to have you there and maybe find some coins and then later maybe make balloon animals and stuff. I can see it now.

Oh yea...nice ring, and I agree, it does look old.

"Coin silver is most commonly 90% silver and 10% copper as dictated by United States FTC guidelines. "Coin Silver" is said to have acquired its name because much of it was made from melting down silver coins, which are generally of the 90% standard. This does allow for some variation in the silver content, depending on which coinage was used to create the silver stock.

Coin silver is usually lower in silver content than sterling. The Coin standard came into common use for table silver in the US during the 1820s, and lasted until 1868."

That is from Wikpedia...
