Hello everyone,
Friday was a pile of a hunt, for lack of better terms. I was in a bad mood anyway, wasn't really feeling it. I did find clad but not anything to mention otherwise. Sunday(with all things) actually proceeded somewhat normally. I got to my destination and was trying to imagine where the good things might be. It took a few hours of wandering and digging and I was getting to my point of pulling the curtains. I was tired and dirty and loathing the ending of the weekend. Then, I got my second wind and plucked out this fat ring. It's not a money maker but it made me feel like Billy Idol for a second...with a rebel yell. The ring may or may not be gold plated...it's stamped with "Thailand". It sure rang up like all my other plated finds. Then, about ten minutes later, several yards away, I found the rosette or whatever you call that thing. It rang up like gold plate too...looks like it is but there are no markings at all on it. The back had something attached to it that has since detached, maybe it was a pin or earring stem? I don't know what it was supposed to be but it's cool looking...kinda Byzantine-ish or Slavic looking to me...could be purely middle eastern too. That dot in the center is plastic I think and it's red, you can't see too well in the pic though. I pictured a squished hem weight and a small pin with a faded design on it. That's all I can do for you all...unless you want to see a pile of clad or can slaw??
Thanks for looking. GL & HH
