Got out for 3 short hunts in Savannah, GA and dug some colonial and civil war period items. Find of the week for me was the broken colonial ring with green stones.

How old do you think the ring is?

It's construction & look (with the paste/glass stones) reminds me of the 1690-1720 cuff-links. That would be an early ring! (not very sure though, rings are not my thing)

This site goes way back. 1680s Spanish cobs have been dug there. But I am no jewelry expert either? Maybe someone will be able to shed more light on it?

Thanks

Useful to know, a bit later than my guess.

The saying goes “everything is better in Metter”. Yeah, I have been there. They are very nice.
