Is this a fur trade ring?

[Piney]

This was found on a fur trade site, but I've never seen one like it. I've not seen one with this big of a stone. Could it have been lost later and just happened to be at the site?

Piney Dont know about the ring for sure its old but how old to say fur trade or not depends what years you go by.
I will look up to see if i can find DA tonight

It's a beautiful ring anyway you look at it. Try David Anderson of Norway for the DA, not sure if he used DA or his entire name.
