I’ve been working offshore and unable to hunt. On my way home I stopped at a North New England shoreside town to a spot. It was completely overgrown but scored this beauty by the seashore.

An quite knowledgeable friend pointed out that the hallmark is angled. He said that a Birmingham mintmark is typically sideways to the datemark and not angled. That said, we seem to both agree it’s mid to late 19th century.

And thought or insight is welcome, of course.

Good hunts

Sorry you haven’t been out much lately. You always have great permissions and I love to see your finds. But it’s nice that you scored a gold on your first time back in action. Way to go and keep swingin.
 
That will kick start the addiction I was wondering about you I haven't got out much either glad too see you got some time to swing and get some sweet gold
 
Nice looking gold ring, congrats on the save
 
Nice find , what are the initials ? Any leads on connecting it to past property owners ? It’s a lot of work but that’s half the fun
