Still a nice ring and far better than a pull-tab!

been participating in metal detecting forums for more than 20 years. Can't tell you how many of those I've seen posted over the years. There sure have been a lot of people that got ripped off when they bought them

I found a 14k fake braclete a while back. Most of the gold was off the outside and it was real easy to see it was fake. Some person got taken on yours and mine.

Those fake bands strike again. I dug 2 but there was no gold gilt remaining. Just the base metal. They were in really old sites so I think they go back to at least the late 1800’s! [emoji106]

Nice find no matter if its fake or not, but like Casper said above, I also wonder if it has any age to it. Maybe Jewelerguy can shed some light on it's approximate age "D"
