Beach Today: Unknown Ring & Silver Earring

[Caliche]

Some success today amid the bottle caps and foil.

Ring has a VDI of 17 on Manticore with a perfect dot on the line. Not magnetic whatsoever. Not heavy enough to be platinum or white gold, maybe it's nickel or something. Wouldn't stainless steel be mildly magnetic and show as ferrous, at least partially?

Earring hits in the 90's and must be silver.

Well done on the recoveries.
Probably the ring is Titanium.

Great finds - congrats !

Nice finds, congrats!

It might be titanium, but most austenitic stainless steels are also non-magnetic by virtue of their crystal structure. The iron is present as non-ferromagnetic austenite, stabilised by the presence of nickel in the alloy. It's a popular choice for inexpensive jewellery because of its resistance to corrosion.

I think you're correct about it being Austenitic stainless steel.

Is that an alpha numeric on the front upper edge of the ring?
