Does anyone recognize this emblem on this ring? Ring was made from half dollar.

Now those are detailed photos, great job, thanks.

Although I don't see a coin or anchor I do seem to see or make up evidence that it is hand carved or it could be just a beat up keeper ring, very nice find like your bracelet. I have made coin rings, it came in and out of fad. My experience started in the mid 1960's and went through a couple other fad periods.

I see a lot of differences in the bilateral symmetry, the curves in the wings are what I tried to match up first. IMO these difference could be pointing to it being hand carved.

Alright... I stand corrected. I can clearly see the wings now. Even better than what I originally though!
