Crotal bell and my first class ring

[toasted]

Got my first class ring tonight. Was totally thrilled for that then a plug or two after that I scored a really nice Crotal with a design on it. Got a couple other decent items but nothing that compares to these two.

I'm thinking it shouldn't be too hard to find the rings owner. Its from the local high school though found at an elementary school

Very nice little bell. Does it still ring? One of the libraries here had all years of the high school yearbook I needed to return one of the class rings I found. I found a contact number for the class reunion organizer for another by doing a Google search for the senior class of that year. There are many resources so good luck!

Forgot to add that ring has initials inscribed on the inside so that will make it much easier to return

Any makers mark letters on the bottom. Should be one on each side..on most

Thanks everyone. The Crotal still rings though the ball on the inside is corroded. The ring is 1983 and I assume silver. It looks brand new though but was suprisingly deep

Good luck in returning the ring!

Nice finds! Congrats!

I'm still looking for both of those items.

That one of the nicer variants of crotal bell known as a "petal bell" due to the design on it. There should be a size number cast into the bell and possibly a maker. When they still have the pea inside and ring you have a special find! Kind of you to return the class ring! Best wishes with that and nice finds.
