Nice little Ring and pendant. Really trashy ball diamond. Finally ran my primary discrimination at a zinc penny and my secondary just above a zinc and pulled these two. The little 5.7" coil sniffs out the goods. Very similar to the Equinox but concentric.

I suspect the Ring is silver although I can't make out the stamp and the Pendant appears to be plated or brass?

** Just discover this ring is stamped 925 and it is a Poison ring with a small latch - I guess you would store a pill in?

I'd never actually heard of a poison ring until now. Guess they really had it out for some king, or wanted to avoid capture at all costs. Better you should hang onto it.

Cool ring. I've heard of poison rings but never seen one posted on here. Awesome find.
I found a charm almost just like yours a few weeks back. Mine is obviously not gold.

Fairly certain mine is not gold either. Possibly plated but not pure gold. My 2nd discrimination is set high for Silver dimes and Quarters and it still comes through - I can see a small nick that exposes the metal alloy underneath the plating. The W. Germany stamp though does at least place it before 1989 though I would think.
