Strange find

[mumszie]

I've been hunting almost every day but not finding much to post. I did manage to find my first gold ring of 2011 yesterday but it is a small 10k ring. Still, gold is gold and I'll take it gladly!

Today I drove 130 miles (round trip) and wasted gas for very little. Yes, I enjoyed myself but was disappointed in my finds. I could have done just as well by staying close to home. But I did come up with one strange find.

There appears to be some etching or writing on one side but I just cannot make it out. The edge of the whole thing is beveled and very sharp.

Close up on the end where I am not sure if this is a design or not.

Any ideas?

It's tough making those long road trips and getting skunked. Glad you found that gold though. It's just enough to keep you going, isn't it?

As to the mystery metal, I haven' t got a clue!
