At least I hope its old. It was very deep, found in an early area, and it looks old to me. Any help appreciated. Stone looks to be black and ring looks like a copper alloy. Also got the little piece of a half real cob, huge decorative pewter button, 1873 Shield nickel and a merc

Thanks. Dont see many cobs come out of the ground outside of the mid Atlantic region. I hadnt found that many myself until I found a total of 12 in the past few years. You’ve surely got all the good coppers though

Well if you’ve never found one like it then it must be old lol. No marks and it kinda looks to have been plated.

Plated would put it from the 1840's up to modern. The ring looks to well made, being made of brass or copper then plated.... to be real old.

Just a guess .........I would say 1840 to early 1900's.

If you ever had it looked at Sure would like to know what they say. Joe
