Adjustable silver ring - a first for me

[sjvalleyhunter]

Today I hit the old city park for a couple of hours. I got a 12-45 signal on the E-Trac and pulled out a ring at about 4 inches. At first glance it looked silver, but when I saw that it was adjustable I thought it would be junk aluminum. However, as I cleaned it off I could feel that it was heavier than aluminum and I did locate a sterling stamp on the back. Perhaps they are common, but frankly this is the first adjustable silver ring I have found. It weighed in at 3.2 grams.

Wow, that is a lot of silver! Do you think it was made for a child to be able to adjust as they grew? Pretty neat find, glad you posted it.

Very cool, wouldn't have ever thought a silver ring would be made like that.
Great save.

Brownie ring! Youngest group of Girl Scouts. In the 1940's, I loved my brown cap & brown uniform, with yellow "Brownie" dancing on them, dancing like on your ring.
Have Fun! Andi

I had no clue what it was until you suggested it was a Brownie ring. I did a Google search and found a number of them. Good call! Thanks.
