Had breakfast this morning with some friends and on the way home decided to stop by the old dump site. My gut feeling was telling me it was a ring kind of day and it didn't disappoint.
Just when I think I found it all I manage to surprise myself all over again. I pulled this beauty and at first glance convinced myself it was a copper ring. As I was cleaning the ring a strange thing happened to me. A Texas DPS helicopter buzzed over me fairly close as it buzzed my car and circles me three time. A couple of those time it hovered about 50 ft away from me... Maybe looking for someone or illegal dumping. Well, after 10 min it flew away as I waved at it...
Once at home I noticed a nice clear gold color on the ring. A closer look revealed a stamp but no carats. So, I'm thinking it's probably gold plated not to mention the stone is chipped.
Any help identifying the makers mark would be greatly appreciated.
Enjoy the pics
