I found this ring by old colonial site. It was all cruddy and i started picking off the crust and exposed the lettering which i was blown away! I would love to know how long this ring was in ground and what time frame. Thanks. I cant find markings because i cant pick the underside of ring.

Victorian Initial Signet Ring

Thanks for the reply! My first time posting and i may have left out some information like i see on the other post suggests. I was in a hurry. All i know is that its old!

 

[jeff of pa]

yes it is old.

very hard to tell if it represents a group,
or Just a Persons Inital (s)
it may just be a Victorian C or even G not CH



calligraphy is not my forte

E?

The script is Elizabethan style.


But the ring looks more like a men's initial ring from the 20th C that is "trying to look old".


It's hard to say without seeing the rest of how the ring is constructed...
