Ring #44: This One Is Very Unusual..

[Natman]

Hi all,

I had some time late this afternoon to fight the heat and mosquitos and came up with a few more things from a few neighborhood yards I had checked earlier this summer..as you can see, I missed a few good targets.

The Rosie is a 1956-D and the wheat is a 1946-P. I also found a 1980 Canadian cent, a bullet casing (7mm Remington magnum) an old key, a big round piece of aluminum (that I thought was a coin at first), and my 44th ring of the year, another silver one!

The ring is very strange looking..it looks quite old and resembles an orchid or lily flower. The letters ST and part of the E are visible inside the band and the rest is worn smooth, so I'm quite sure it's part of the word STERLING.

Cool ring Nat, congrats.
Loks like it's a 50's ring, maybe 40's.
Is it hallmarked "Sterling"?
WTG, keep em coming buddy!

That is an unusual ring Nat. I love it!

What is that round thing above the key?

 

[Natman]

Is it hallmarked "Sterling"?

Hey there BDoo..It says "ST", then part of an "E" and the rest is worn out..my guess is sterling.

What is that round thing above the key?

Hey Digger..it's a thick, round piece of aluminum. That's the 11th one I've found in that yard!

Silver is always nice, Natty!

Lisa, it is, isn't it? I'd gladly trade it for for finding one of those two-centers though..maybe someday..

Thanks all for your continued encouragement, it's been a great year for me so far.

Great find on that ring Natman. You didn't leave anything behind in thoes yards you hunted today, you just left a few good thing for the next time you hunted them. HH and keep it swinging!

That ring looks very "Art Nouveau". 1890's to 1920's.

It could be a designer ring from that movement. I'd do a little research if I were you!


Congratulations!

I would guess 1930 or older for the ring. I've never seen one like it, and I'd definitely do some research.

Someone asked what the other ring-like thing is, and I didn't see an answer--it's the keyring part of a keychain.

I did answer all the questions..you may be asking about the ring itself in the group shot..the larger pic of the ring is the same ring, showing the other side.
