Uncas, a company that primarily made only rings, though a few brooches were occasionally made.

[ANTIQUARIAN]

Love that silver ring TC!
Is this old thimble made of brass?
Looks to me like it might be restorable?

 

[Roland58]

Can you make out what it says around the star on the side, below the eagle? I have my father's USAF ring from about 50 years ago and it looks nothing like yours, so, I'm figuring older than that. The brass hose nozzles are cool......those are still made today, exactly like those, and I remember them when I was a very small kid.......they last forever!

This one is Claiming WW2, but I dont think it was the airforce until after wW2 it was the aircorp

You are right Albert, Sept. 12, 1947 is when the Air Force came into operation. The stone looks like Aquamarine. Very cool, how many grams is it?

 

[Old River]

Looks like you at it again. Nice finds. The ring is nice no matter what it is. Congradulations.....

 

[texan connection]

12.48 Grams, the stone is pretty cloud, So i figure is fake

 

[Tennessee Treasure Hunter]

great finds!!

The ring is from the late 40's.
Even after the birth of the USAF it was still consider Aircorp till the late forties.

[thrillathahunt]

I don't think they would put a fake stone in a ring like that.....

 

[jrandy]
