Interesting ring

[CrankyBuzzard]

Not today's find, but one that I found in January at an old home site (1890s to 1974) in East Texas.

The diamonds test real and the ring itself tests at 14+k. After showing this to several people on a couple of FB groups I belong to, we haven't been able to determine what the origin, or meaning, of the ring is.

Any ideas out there?

Looks like an O1



or a 1910 (more Likely) the 0 would be top heavy otherwise.



I'm leaning towards Unique College or Class ring



from a place named after this Guy



Is he Praying ? or clapping ? Religious School of some Type Maybe ?

are the stones real ?

The stones are real per the jeweler down the street from me. Hadn’t considered the numerical possibility, but that may be a stretch.

If I could figure out who the dude was on the side I think I would be in business.

Looking forward to other thoughts and ideas...
