I have tried to get a clearer pic, but not working out. the pic with the expanded view is the back..(mount) the other two the Top..the piece seems to show indentations all the way around (mounting for jewels?) and then rings till the center look like a place for a center piece would have set..... yes I think it was a ring broken off the actual ring part and this is the setting... Of course I probably have convinced myself of that. LOL

Did you clean it? What color when you recovered it?
 

I didn't want to ruin the metal so no test for silver... I think it's brass or copper? maybe
 

No

no one said to clean it. The question was did you and if not, what color when you recovered? Is this the exact color as when you recovered?

I was hunting at night when i found it. but it was dark in color and after I got home I washed it mild soap and water it.
I didn't look at it hard right away but it has looked the same as todays pic as when I found it. It

Take a bunch of pictures till you get one that is clear. It is just a blurry object now. When did you find it?
 

To be honest... i see a couple of things in that one photo that are interesting..

Post pictures of other items too if you wish
 

I'm seeing shades of green.
1)tarnished metal ?
2) Emeralds ?
3) jade ?
4) cut glass ?
???
 

Ok i am heading out to go detecting right now... So I will take the advice and I will post repost some pics when I can soon. And hopefully I will get some clear shots because there is a lot of detail I haven't been able to capture on the camera. Happy hunting see yall soon.
 

Try this, was able to draw out surface reflections better.

I'm seeing the shades of green. Could it be paint or corrosion?
