First Gold Ring!!!!

[Murray8144]

Update: a couple members say it's Georgian period...late 1700s/early 1800s...I'm over the moon...

I did dig a possible white gold ring a few months ago, but this one i'm fairly sure is legit. Rang up as a 12-20 on the e-trac and was only about 3" deep. weight is 7.2g. i've been trying to decipher the hallmarks...there's an anchor which i think means Birmingham U.K., there's a bust which i think is a duty mark (if that's what it is then it was was made sometime between 1784 and 1890), and then there's "MP" stylized together...any info on that?



Couple more finds from the past few days:

1880 Campaign token for Winfield Hancock and W.M. English



1905 New Jersey Census pin

 

[Deft Tones]

Good find.

Now go get the rest of them.

I would at least get it tested. It may always remain somewhat of a mystery a lot like my Pomander find, but at least yours is marked. It will be hard to top a find like that though if it is indeed 18th or early 19th

Now that I'm digging more low tones I was thinking of getting a gold test kit. Yes this find will be hard to beat, but I will still have a grin on my face next time I did a lowly Rosie.
