Is it possible that this could be silver even though it does not have a makers mark?

could be or could be nickle...not sure they made rings out of nickle but Iv seen nickle come out of the ground looking like silver..
 

What detector do you have and what does it read on the VDI
 

I would say silver Signet type ring I dont see a junk ring with script writing out on it just me does it have the ringing sound if you strike it
 

I was using a at max and it rung up 35-40. I haven't done a drop test yet.
 

It's a honker either which way. Nice find.

The sound it makes with a drop test is a sharp high tone sound.
 

On the AT MAX silver would not VDI at 35 to 40 it would be about 80 to 90 .!!!!!!!
 

On the AT MAX silver would not VDI at 35 to 40 it would be about 80 to 90 .!!!!!!!

Agreed, if that ring is silver, it should read much higher.
 

Sweet find, congrats! :occasion14:
 

Silver has a ring to it like if you ding a quarter against a silver quarter it has a ring to it

I found a big honking silver dome style ring and it rang 91 on the Pro.
I would be very happy with that be it silver or nickel.
 

It looks too gray from the photos to be silver, to me. Silver is more white. Will a magnet stick to it? If it does, it's definitely not silver and is probably steel (or could be nickel).
 

I say Nickel or SS...rare to see SS monogrammed. The way it is honed out out is normal for SS..I would take it to the jeweler for testing.

There you go thats a great idea lol I wish I would have thought of that..Great idea
 

Beautiful ring. Let us know what you find out about the monogram too.
 

Spit on a piece of aluminum foil and rub on the inside of the ring. If it smells like rotten eggs itโ€™s silver, if no smell itโ€™s something else.
 

Another good idea
