Hello,

I found these goodies in a box of old stuff that belonged to my mother, it was a nice surprise.
This is the second silver dollar I found that belonged to her in the last couple of years.
Shes been gone 18 years but I'm still finding things of hers.

Joe.

Here are the closeups requested.

If the ring is signed "Ben Nighthorse" , don't sell it. He later became Ben Nighthorse Campbell, Korean war hero, olympic judo athlete , US Senator from Colorado, Democrat and then later, Republican. As well as a well known Souix silver smith. Working in the Southwest style of silversmithing.

Can you post close-ups of both sides? I'm trying to determine the VAM.

Cool that you are still finding your mom's possessions.

I posted the closeups of the coins as requested.
The ring has no markings and I don't know what its made of.
