005.webp006.webpFound this a few years back.It appears to be a mans ring.It is brass,and was silver plated,still has a little silver in the low spots.I took it to the local coin shop awhile back and had them test the stone and it is not a diamond.I am just curious of how old it might be.

Thanks jeweleryguy.Just curious of what gives you that indication,its design?

yes, primarily the design. some years back I hunted an area where practically all the finds dated from the 30's and I turned up a couple of very similar rings.

It is impossible to tell age of this piece...
it is copper.
It was plated with silver or white gold... white metal whatever etc...
It appears to have been "cut off" someone.
This is common practice in jails for those who cannot remove a ring.
also done in emergency situations.
